Got the Tekken 3 cabinet home today. Plugged it in and me and the kids played for a while. Got some fun stuff in the mail today......
I-PAC 2 for the work cabinet, I-PAC 4 for the home cabinet and a video amp for each
Also got some new joysticks, buttons and a couple trackballs. (I'll add pics tomorrow...the stuff is at work)
Here a shot of Tekken 3 up and running....plays great
Should have both of the new control panels cut and drilled this weekend. Will hopefully have both cabinets converted over and working in the next couple weeks.
I noticed I didn't post PC specs earlier....so here ya go.......
Both pc's will have the same specs (extra PC equipment I had laying around)
Asus motherboard
Will use onboard sound and network
Athlon X2 3800 CPU
2GB DDR Memory
Nvidia 6800GT 512mb video card
450watt power supply
WinXP
Haven't decided on Front End to use
I'm going to use my old Klipsch Promedia 2.1 speaker set for my cabinet, not sure what we are doing with the work one.
That's where I am at so far. Not a whole lot of progress.....but will get the ball rolling this weekend.

Tekken 3 is such a great game, awesome memories playing that game.;D I wish upright cabinets in AZ were that cheap, most places want $200 and thats just the cabinet. I use Maximus Arcade frontend, Ive heard Mala, Mamewah, and GameEX were also great choices, but its all preference. I can't wait for some progress pictures.

Out of interest - how much are you looking for the Atomiswave and DF? I live in the UK and depending on price I may be interested... :)

Was thinking $100 for the pair. If you don't need it right away, I'm flying over to Manchester in May :)
