Thanks I learned a lot about painting at work. Oil based paint and primer. Foam 4" mini roller. 1 coat primer. Light sand. 3 coats paint with light sanding after first coat.

Anybody interested in helping make a game list? Looking for an all killer no filler list suited for an 8 way 2 button horizontal setup. I really dig platformers, side scrolling shmups, run n guns, fight and go right. 2 player games welcome as long as I can play single player as this is a single player cab. ( I can't Not play contra)

List:
Ghosts n goblins
Ghouls n ghosts
Haunted castle
Rastan
Black tiger
Magic sword
Gradius
R type
Darius
Contra
Bazerk
Rygar
Ninja Kid 2
Tiger Road
Rolling Thunder
3 Wonders
Wardner

I've never really looked into it but there is already an all killer no filler list so isn't it able to be filtered using your parameters?

Those cover many various categories and control types. Too much filtering for me, I failed 9th grade lol. Just looking for personal inputs

Well I can't remember how many buttons these all use but I was thinking of games I remember like:
Golden Axe
Altered Beast
Magician Lord

Map magic to both buttons pressed at the same time on Golden Axe.  Problem solved.

Or, hear me out, make it 3 buttons and remap your games so that Ghouls N Ghosts is like Attack - Jump - Attack.

I like the first idea better. I'm dead set on 2 buttons. Though I thought real hard about a genesis or neo geo theme.

I guess you are trying to stick with the 2 buttons from the Ghouls and Ghosts panel?  Sure would be nice to have 3.  Usually we are talking people down from 8...lol.  With 3 you get all the Metal Slugs or do the 2 button combo thing pbj suggested for grenades.

I like a small limited game list. Gives me a reason to build another one. If I added another button now I would have to change the theme or It will bother me.

Got the marquee and kickplate in thanks to Lucian045. Rints came out great. Wish I made the kickplate a little taller, and the 2 ghouls n ghosts does bother me a little bit but I can live with it.

Also I got some light bleeding under the cp but I can fix that.

Looking good.  That is such an awesome marquee.  One of my favorites even though I am absolutely terrible at the game.  Not too much left to do now I bet.  You are really moving fast.   :cheers:

I'll be honest I've never made it out of the first area. But there is an old video game saying "get good" and get good I shall. Saving the control panel for last. Just tweeking the art so everything lines up.

Best part about these cabs is I can still pick it up by myself. Managed to get it inside. The front porch stairs were the hardest lol.

Looks right at home there.  Job well done!  You also have the perfect setup to do the mirrored arcade room look if you want like in the mimic build thread.  :cheers:

These little cabarets are so perfect they almost make me want to get rid of my DK.  I could put two of these things in the same place and cover a lot more games.

Hey check out what I got today. Should be able to wrap it up this weekend. Just need to prime and paint the bezel, route out the joystick area. Put it back together and toss in a computer.

Looking good.  The CPO is so simple yet it just works for this cabinet.  You are flying through this build.

Thanks. I like the way it came out. Trying to blend the bezel with the cp was tricky so I got rid of the skulls and stuff that was part of the overhang, but I didn't want to lose it all together which is why I converted it to a kickplate.

2 years ago today I finished the galaga. I just might be able to finish this one today. My router broke yesterday. I snapped the locking shaft over tightening a bit. So I had to cut out the insert for the joystick mount with a hammer and chisel. 1 plus of the mdf is that it is real easy to chisel.

So true.  MDF is fun to chisel.

This thing came out great.  Really nice job!  :applaud:

How does it work?  You just power on from the back and MAME boots straight to GnG?  I don't see an exit button on the CP so I guess there's no menu or anything that you can accidentally back out into?
