Big Screen Arcade
skim36:
Hey all,
Thinking of upgrading my arcade machine. A few years ago I ran into a Tekken 4 arcade with a big screen. The controls were set back a few feet on a podium. I have an old 50 inch DLP not doing anything at the moment and thought it would be great to hook that baby up. Looking for plans on a large screen arcade cab, something like this:

Anyone here build one of these? I'd mod my cab but I'm not cutting apart a Street Fighter 2 Dynamo. Any help appreciated.

It's called a showcase cabinet, just fyi.

As long as you got the space for something like this and able to put some distance between the player and the screen then why not. I started a showcase cabinet myself cause I had an extra 27" Panasonic CRT flat screen TV and maybe one day I will complete it :) I don't suppose your DLP has HDMI does it?
