Ms. Pac conversion
MYX:
Before and After
javeryh:
Very nice work! Are you going to put any other games in there?
MYX:
Probably not. It will probably stay dedicated. I will be building a MAME cab for the multi game thing.

Very nice work. The before and after photo comparsion between cabinets looks awesome. I bought a mspacman plus pcb board on ebay for about the same price you paid for your whole cabinet (AU$53) As i don't have a dedicated cabinet to put it in (appart from my scratch build 2p mame cabinet), i have put in into a 14" cocktail table that also has a gaplus pcb board in. I would love to have a dedicated caberet mspac cabinet...maybe i will if i can convince my hubby to let me put another arcade machine in the house

My head's spinning. Great job, but at the same time...
I was going down the thread only looking at pictures, thinking "WOW! $52 for a working Ms Pac board set!". I was wondering what you'd do with it...
Scroll down some more, I see a QIX marquee and then a Qix control panel. I think "Cool! He's going to restore a classic to its former glory!".
Then I see the cab outside prepped for some painting or something. The sides looked really good so I thought maybe you were painting details or something.
Then the sides are blue! "AUUGH!! What is he doing!?!"
:(
Like I said. You did a great job, but you know empty Midway style cabs are all over the place. Why didn't you restore the Qix and then put the MsPac in a proper cabinet?
