A Cabinet for a Dorm room.
<< < (3/9) > >>
LD1984:
Well, word on the street is that housing for next year is gonna be announced in the next few days. I think I'll wait to hear my assignment before making any huge plans. Then I can scout out the room and see if a beautiful Arcade Cabinet would be a worthy investment.

Since I'm here again, I'd like to hear some suggestions as to how I can build the cabinet cheaply (in the event that my dream comes true). I have a hunk of cash sitting around, and I'd like to keep it in hunk form. By that, I mean I'd like to have some left.

So?

Yeah...the sad thing is, they went first, and in the end they will still win.  Don't get me wrong a MAME cab is cool, but we're talking about naked sorority girls here.  You're going to have to do better!  :)

and then hook up webcam or x-10 ninja cam up to watch the other room's stripper pole on the embedded screen while playing arcade games.
Of course, if you are playing video games while watching naked chicks on the screen, then you will probably be limiting yourself to games you can play with 1 hand :-)
OK, to get the coolness factor, I think you need a full size cabinet, but will all the components in the top half and the bottom half would be where the keg and tapper go (tapper on the side of course, so as not to interfere with game play).  Whole thing on wheels so it can be wheeled across the hall to watch the stippers while drinking and playing classic games.

Just a few thoughts and observations.  A cocktail could be very cool but it might actually need more room than you have.  With a cocktail you need to room to sit a person down on each side so in the ultra confined space of a dorm that might not work.  Of course if it would fit it acts as a coffe table type of deal and is pretty convienient.  I really like the idea of a full size arcade machine though if you get a older smaller cab it should work pretty well.  My old taito cab from the 80's is pretty small and you could squezze it in a little space and still have enough room to play some 2 player Street Fighter.  But I think a nice big MK cab design is out though. ;)
