Arcade Slugger (metalslug inspired,my first 2P cab)

(1/6) > >>

mrPiklz:
Hi All,

After a few years of being inspired by all your amazing arcade builds/creative flare  here , I thought Its time i get my hyperspin setup a new cab.

So one of my fav games was  the  Metal slug series and had some spare pc parts so I thought its time!Time to build be a home for all my fav games,
so 'Arcade Slugger' was born,with most parts purchased (electronics) 2 years ago its only now I've had the time to setup the cp ,down the weeks ahead hopefully the full size cab parts too.


My chosen setup for CP based on HyperSpin and RGB lights:

2Player  7 Buttons(all rgb lit) each (4bottom row( in a line) for neogeo games the 6 for fighter games/rest etc)

ultimarcs RGB trackball

ultimarcs pacled64

paradise-arcades il translucent buttons (for admin/extra pinball side buttons)

paradise-arcades rgb lit buttons for player controls   and COIN P1 P2 lit buttons

paradise-arcades red led lit bubble top shaft 8/4/2 joystick x2

mini usb hub painted metalic black
3m vinyl on inside of base cp and top cover with
Acrylic based cover on custom Artwork - large format CP ( think like mortal kombat , curved edge)

21 inch screen dell based 16x9(bit old though might go wit hthe 24incher which i just bought) ,my prev workstation will now be the pc running the show ,Intel duo quad @3.5ghz ,280gtx,4GB
sound will be some old altec lansing stereo pair of desktop pc speakers and an old panasonic or yamaha separate subwoofer but  not sure which one yet

still to get :
custom retrozone ports for consoles (nes,snes,genesis,n64 etc)
the pads for those ports
the rest of cab panels still to design



pics coming right up ..
