So does it have to be a "box" or use wood to be considered a "cabinet" ?
Malenko:
you can see the PC with PS3 on top, xbox 360 is over on the bigger TV for meow. I have an extra power cord and HDMI wire to move it back and forth with ease.
yes, I sit in the seat and play dreamcast games too

Fun game room! Can a person play Broad Street and sit in the racer?
Also are there games you play on the DC that you can't play on the emulator?
Malenko:
thats not my gameroom, its just the limit of whats allowed in the living room :) My arcade is downstairs.
In terms of the dreamcast, the best way I can put it is "Emulation is amazing but when I can play the real thing, I prefer the real thing". Most of my dreamcast titles are legit too, not CDRs. I still have my Sega Saturn, Super NES, etc hooked up in my office. :cheers:

In my opinion, while that definitely looks functional and cool, and is definitely a "project", a "cabinet" IMO needs to be encased in wood and resemble what you would see in an arcade. Cool setup though! Would like one of those in my house, given I do not have the space for a racing cabinet.

@mkmk4
Is it really that much of a departure when compared to the likes of STUN Runner, wave runner, or that Harlet Harley Davidson game?
If the monitors were thinner sooner, we would have seen arcade games take advantage of space. Surely, the formula for arcade operators success was "amount of quaternary quarters per square foot per minute" Rather than "Square foot of wood per machine."
The upright version of crazy taxi comes to mind as example a zebra of a different stripe here; but it's still a zebra.
Does Malenko Motorsport look like a coin op machine? No. Primarily, because there is no coin door or excessive housing for a CRT.
