Bam's Arcade Project
« on: July 07, 2008, 09:22:09 pm »
Hi everyone,


I've always wanted to have a arcade, the only problem was that there are so many games.
It wasn't sinds recently that I've found out that i could put all of my games in one arcade through a PC.
I have bought a empty Virtual striker 2 cabinnet and I'm painting it at the moment and I'll upload some pictures later this week.

Please feel free to leave your comments or advice.
This is the first time every i try building something like this.
And i could use some advice ! :laugh:

Thanks for reading.

Cheerz Bam :dizzy:




Here is what the cab looked like when i bought it.

Love the style of that cab. Sega stuff looks so cool.
Are you using the arcade monitor? If so, read up. I think its a medium resolution and they can be a bit finicky.

Its only the tube, the Chassis was missing.
I'm looking for an other cheap 27inch/70cm screen.
At the moment I'm using a 21inch computerscreen.
