I've thought of that, but what does that have to do with an arcade cabinet?

Nothing, but I don't think it has to.  No one said cabinet names or themes have to be directly arcade related.  Upright cabinet could look a little like a high rise building, no?

Only if you're really unlucky with your monitor and the whole thing goes up in smoke.

I'm going to call my first cab CAPTAIN AMERICADE. Obviously it's going to have a Captain America theme.

I'm already thinking about my 2nd cab. I want to do a camoflauge painjob with a Metal Slug theme. Not sure about the name though...

Fire Dragon Arcade (what can I say, found some artwork that I thought would look really cool on it and at least it's somewhat original)  ;)

I called mine MameNation before I knew any better.  

Next cab will not have the word Mame anywhere on it and the CP will not extend past the sides of the cab.

"Arcaden". I have a 17 month old son named Caden. By the way, his high score on ms. pacman is 320. He challanges any other 1 year old to beat it.

My 1 year old could have beaten that!  Of course, he can't rightly challenge, because now he's 2.   ;)

I have named my 1st Cabinet "MAME Fighter" as I love playing fighting games.

i built a rotating monitor cocktail cabinet and so i knew it would end up wider than standard. so i call it the 'fatboy'. in the end it only ended up 34mm wider so the name is lost on most people

You do realize that 'dork' is a synonym for pen*s, yes?

Well, right now my cab is named "the cabinet" as in, "Sweetie, I'm going to work on "the Cabinet" this weekend."  When it's done (hopefully by the end of the month) it will be known as "the Arcade Game", as in "Sweetie, the Arcade Game is taking up too much space, I think we need to move it back to the laundry room" (said by my wife, who has promised me we can move the cabinet out of the laundry room once it's playable and not Orange.  
If no one feeds the trolls, we're just going to keep eating your goats.
