Super Nintendo
NES
Sega Master System
Sega Genesis
Wincab Jukebox

INTEL CELERON D 2.8GHZ CPU &
INTEL D915GAG MOTHERBOARD
512MB RAM
80G sata HDD
17" CRT monitors
stereo speakers
ipac keyboard encoders
zippy joysticks
6 buttons a side + pause button on both sides
side 1 also has 2 flipper buttons for pinball on sides of CP
also usb ports in the front which are monitored by the jukebox for usb sticks with mp3s

Very nice work indeed.  I would like to build a cocktail cabinet one day.  What are you using to display the control setups?  Also have you given any thought to using black speakers?

I use Fullscreen Photo Viewer to display the controls, I made the control pics in photoshop and then put them all in a folder, point fullscreen Photo viewer at folder and set it as an external app.

Yes speakers are the downfall finding the right size and color

Very nice, but the speakers to detract a little, esp since they're white.

Maybe cover the inside of the hole with speaker cloth and just hotglue the speakers in place +inside+ the cab would work better? (or screw them in place, or decase the speakers and just screw the speaker itself to the cab)
