Mario Brothers - 2-Player Bartop
« on: April 01, 2013, 08:27:10 am »
I had another request for a Super Mario Bartop. This time in green.

It is going in some kids game-room.

I took the member's advice and input from the last one and did my best to shrink the control panel down. I removed an inch from the length and a half inch from the sides while still keeping it comfortable. The pictures may be deceiving (and crappy) but this thing is not very big.

16" Laptop Screen

The control panel is about 5" in length and nearly 20 1\2" in width.

And pictures!

Marquee



Night shot



Rear & Serial Plate



Thanks!

What version of MB is that? My 8 year old was looking over my shoulder while viewing this build... Now it is a requirement to have this on our cab too.. LOL  Nice build, I would stick this in my sons room, put a quarter mech in it and get all his allowance back from him! ;) LOL

I no longer have a decent camera to snap pictures with so no build pics on this one. But this is not the first of its design, check my Bartop Archive and you can see a couple 2-Player builds complete with a ton of pictures for your viewing pleasure!

Here is a link to my Red vs Blue one.

The version of MB on the Control Panel Art is the New "Super Mario Brothers" for Wii, the Marquee is just some image I whipped together from a google image search. If you are referring to the game on the screen that would be the first "Super Mario Brothers" for NES, but the updated graphics version one the SNES game "Super Mario All-Stars".

Hope that answered your question. Mario themes are always a hit with children.

Heard back from the lady who bought it and her two kids are going nuts over it. They have been playing it every day since she brought it home.

She put it in a little kids game room.

Knockin them out left & right.
