Happ Dualpro cabinet. Bottom screen is touchscreen.

It will be used mostly for casino games.  Maybe a few token redemption games could use it too.  Looks good if you want to go with dynamic marquee setup, bit pricy though at nearly 3k  :cheers:

Yeah, arcades have been flooded with these for years, very similar designs at least

They run all the gambling games, usually multi-game touch screen things that are designed to be as 'in your face' as possible.

I've noticed here that even a lot of the traditional non-video fruit machines are being replaced with these running on-screen versions of basically the same things, complete with bottom feature and top feature on the respective screens.

I don't think they're going to bring about any worthwhile games ;-)

Eesh touchy subject but I personally can’t imagine playing the old arcade classics on a widescreen. That being said I built my machine to my preferences, everyone else can build theirs to what they prefer.

But for card games who cares.

I still don't approve of widescreen, I just think the cabinet is sleek.

You could also make the bottom monitor 4:3 by installing it vertical and jamming some of it down inside the cabinet unused.

Did someone hack Paige’s account?
If you can read this, it means Photobucket's money grab ruined my signature photos.

Today's $2900 behemoth is tomorrow's $100 auction pick up.

And yes, I would recommend a pi over a computer from 1996.
