So who's the resident midway cocktail expert around here?
Stobe:
Who wants to be my new best friend? :)
I just picked up a Midway cocktail project tonight. Its a good start, but I'm sure I'm going to have a few questions soon.
I found (in a quick search) MikesArcade.com, he seems to have quite a few Midway parts. Is there any other places that are good as well?
Thanks,
Stobe

Depends on what parts you're looking for ......
What game is/was it?

I know it was wrong and I wouldn't do it again, but 3 years ago I converted a Rally X into a vertical MAME cabinet. You can check my website for pictures of the process:

Well, I may have gotten bad information about the history of the cab. The guy wasn't too sure what it was.
But I did notice (as I suspected) that the RallyX cab had cutouts on the top for horizontal controls. My top is setup currently for vertical controls.
My first question is about the joysticks. My CP "boxes" look to be around 12" wide (instead of 9" which I've heard for Ms Pc), but they seem very shallow. It doesn't look like any joystick I've ever seen would fit in the depth. Are the Ms Pac/Galaga reunion sticks that much shorter than others?
