Thank you all for your comments.
I want to keep it fairly simple, and drilling extra holes in the CP will I think take away from the beauty of the creators artwork. That will also limit the creativity of button placements.
I know you have seen the guts of a CP, theres not much more room for channelling etc.
The concept I have in mind, will be to create to vent holes on both sides of the CP as intakes, of course dressed up with some sort of mesh. All I want is some sort of circulation in between the monitor, which produces heat and the player.
Having a direct flow of wind into a players eyes would get pretty irritating, and air flow on the hands considering the spacing of the joystick and buttons would be kind of hard to accomplish, not to mention it feels kinds of weird to have air of that magnitude blowing across your fingers while playing.
Hopefully, the placement will just create a small area of fresh air for the player's. I used to be an arcade MK, Streetfighter junkie......and I remember having to step away because of the heat generated and lack of air circulation.
Keep the comments coming though.....Jotting down everything......

Yeah, you definitely wouldn't want anything powerful enough to blow into people's faces. That'd be really annoying.
But it's surprising just how little airflow you need across your hands to keep them cool.
At any rate, it's an intriguing idea i hadn't seen before.
good stuff!

Cool stuff. I like all the effects but it seems a little long to me. About 15-25 seconds would be about the most I'd want to have to go through when I start things up.
I really like that raining sparks effect though!
