That being said it is your machine and if you will be happy with it, go for it. Do you have (know someone) with a monitor that big? If so, test it. Set up the monitor on a table/counter/whatever at the height it would be in a cabinet, hook it up to something and stand however far you would be and try playing something. If you like it then go for it. If you don't have one that big now can you view one in a store? Go stand 2 feet from it and see how it feels. |

Everyone here is right - 39" screen from 2 feet away will make you blind. And give you a bad neck from panning left to right constantly to see everything that's going on! R-Type on a 25" screen is enough for me but then again I'm not whipper snapper I used to be... There are ways you could do it: - use full bezels on games to make the actual game screen smaller - make a pedestal build and stand further away then it could work. - Rotate the screen vertically and do something like the MVC2 cab :notworthy: - just use that screen on a pin-cab like it was meant for :laugh: Either way - if you're used to a 32" screen and it works for you then go for it. And supply lots of pics for our wierd new-build cab fetish that we have here. |

haha thanks for the insight everyone. I do want an "arcade" and will stay away from the pedestal setup. It was hard to find reviews on that screen size and Arcades R Fun uses it as a standard, so I wanted to see if I was missing something. |
