My new candy cabinet project

I did not. I purposefully waited until my friend got in so that we could rotate it together. Man did we have a time getting it on all 4 screws. I finally got the bezel to snap on. I had to bend the metal a little. Im not sure if we tweaked it or something when we rotated the monitor but its on and it works now as you can see:





Just waiting on the wires to come in so I can hook up a computer!

Im running out of time before my party so Im just hurrying up my build of a computer. It wont run Ikaruga but it will run all the 2D Sprite based games. I took a computer I know was mostly working and added the parts to complete it. 2.4 GHz processor, GeForce 4MX. 512MB. Used to be a beast back in the day. Now....not so much. Will still run some shmups games to make the cab playable till I build a computer from the ground up.



Building XP comp during store hours.




Downloaded mame, mala, and aerofighters for the test.

Have to get the drivers for the sound card and then Im done with the temporary computer. Just waiting on the wires to come in to connect the controls!~

Way to get a computer together for this. It really looks stunning! Good thing there are plenty of 2D sprite Shmups to hold you over for the time being.  :cheers:

Protip: Get a Dreamcast and burn Ikaruga to a disc. Put DC into Blast City = win.

That was going to be my suggestion too  :cheers:

What's the 360 XBLA port like? That could also be a possibility if you don't have a DC VGA box.

I thought those looms would have arrived by now  :-\  Looking at the tracking it looks like they have been held up in the sorting facility. It does say that they have departed the facility so hopefully they will be with you soon  :)
