Purpose of the marquee? Can you do away with it?

To be fair, it's probably something to consider the decoration of the house itself and the actual placement of the cab. I like the marquee myself, but I'll bank my GF would rather have a cab without one. It's more subdued that way and isn't likely to overwhelm our soon to be redecorated home.

We're going with a lightish yellowish whatever the ---fudgesicle--- its called color with dark brown not-quite chocolate for accents. Our floor will be dark with dark squishy couch and light birch(?) wood furniture. An arcade in the corner flashing a colorful marquee and sporting skittles buttons would look out of place in the contemporary setting.

Yeah, but who keeps a cab in the living room. If you've got it in a spare room, to hell with the decor of the house.

I've got three of them there.
My two Nichibutsu cabs (Crazy Climber and Radical Radial), and a Jaleco Pony sitdown cab.

I've always been partial to the cabaret cabs like these.

You mean to say you have THIS in your living room?

Anubis_au:

hmm... a marquee at the front, not the top... interesting...

I've honestly never seen that before, and although the idea came to me I dismissed it, but now that I've seen it, it's a possibility to consider...

But would there be a point in a front marquee if you have the circular side ones ala Neon MAME?
