Looks good. The only issue I have is the clarity of the LCD with Galaga. It's just a little too sharp. Know what I mean? Not much you can do about it. It's one of the few games I prefer a CRT with.

I use the scientific additive method to reduce the sharpness. Just add BEER :cheers:

Just remember, when the display suddenly disappears (this has been known to happen with this method) rotate 180 degrees.
;D

Went with a combo look. Pac-man and Galaga art. Hate the split front panel on anniv cabs so I just left it alone for now.
So here it is at about 98 percent done.
Finished back panel. Used a cutout for the ATX power supply so I could use it's AC cord and on/off switch. Fan is reversed to blow air in and the fan at the top of the cab blows air out.
Pac-Man art for the left side of cab.
Galaga art for the right side of the cab.
Combo marquee for Pac-Man and Galaga. I know - wrong game on screen :D
