This will be my second "cabinet" that I have built. It all started with finding an Atari keychain at Oshmans on clearance for 6$. I though it would be a funny gimmick for the office and I had a small B&W 5inch TV up there for AM radio (also clearance at CVS). My desk became a popular hotspot with people playing Pong, Break-out, and Warlords. I was really surprised at how smooth the POT was on this... So I decided to build a mini cabinet for my desk.
I was inspired by markrvp's setup for his son so I also picked up the following:
Namco1: Ms. Pac-man, Galaga, Pole Position, Mappy, and Xevious
Namco2: Pac-man, Pac-man Plus, Super Pac-man and PAC and PAL
ADDITIONS:
Namco3: Pacman, Bosconian, Galaxian, Rally X, Dig Dug
Capcom: Commando, 1942, Ghost N' Goblins
Konami: Frogger, Gyruss, Rush N' Attack, Time Pilot, Yie Ar Kung Fu, Scramble
Radica: Space Invaders, Phoenix, Lunar Rescue, Qix, and Colony 7
also for Note here are the Atari games: Pong, Breakout, and Warlords
I needed to go color and I had an old PSone 5inch LCD from my CarPC hacks in the bucket-o-parts so I dug it out and hooked up a temp solution. It works better than I could have hoped for. My plan is to use a Tornado Terry's Happ Joystick, two buttons, and either hack saw the pole position shaft and add a spinner knob, or if I can combine the controls into one using the atari pot. I'll attack that when I get to the control panel build.
Here are some shots to kick this off (Sorry I got a little picture crazy):
