I was thinking earlier today about how I could save space in my house and still have and arcade and pinball machine. Initially, I though I could just make miniature versions with all the functionality of full sized machine. I like this idea, because having mini arcades or virtual pinball machines is just crazy awesome. I plan on having a game room one day, in the not so distant future( I hope...), but for right now, i want to use my house more efficiently.
Then it came to me. Why not build a arcade cab that is also a virtual pinball machine. A cabinet that has both built into the same cabinet. If i want to play an arcade game i put the cab in an upright position, and if i want to play a pinball game, i rotate it to the pinball position.
I spent the next few hours modeling the concept, and here is what i came up with...
Tell me what you think. And if you want to use these pics for inspiration to build your own, by all means, build away.
Oh, and if anybody has built something like this already, let me know, i would really love to see them
