Sega Saturn Powered Bartop
Bauley:
All finished!
(I ended up hacking a genuine Sega Saturn controller after both of my SuperPad 8's died. They are completely worthless!)
(I used screws that were a little too long for the joystick :-\
I'm going to wait until a later date to do the control panel art.
Somewhat near future plans:
-Get controller extension cords and make access under the control panel to easily hook up a second player gamepad or a stunner.
I certainly enjoyed building this thing. Can't wait to do another one!!!
BurgerKingDiamond:
That looks awesome. That TV fits perfect for being a kit. I would suggest getting a less big, ugly knob for the trap door, and getting a marquee light. But other than that, nice job
emphatic:
The placement of the console is perfect! Everything looks great (except for the joystick screw mishap, but I'm sure your artwork will take care of that). :applaud:

While it's tragic that your screws were too long, you can just drill the holes through and use bolts. If it were me, I would do it. I know lots of people are against having them show but I can't think of a "real" machine that didn't.
Looks good. Even, in a weird sort of way... the knob on top. Kind of like dipping into the cookie jar!

Most Japanese cabs use a hidden mounting plate for the joysticks.
