Title: New to the site - A Tour of my recently completed Arcave
Post by: fischb on June 29, 2013, 07:24:04 pm

I just completed my Arcave room (arcade mancave).  We refinished the room to look like an 80's arcade, put in extra circuits, lights, etc.  I built the driving simulator using a SimXperience Stage 2 rig.  The MAME pedestal is from Dream Home Arcades, custom built by them.  There are two real pinballs, plus of course the VirtuaPin from the company of the same name.  And finally, a cabinet strictly for shooting games that I built myself.  I think I will do a more in-depth review of each of the vendor products a little later.

I got a lot of advice and tips from this forum - thanks.

Here is the little tour of my game room:

Arcave is very impressive.  Nice to see such fine examples of the whole spectrum of machines. Good to see that you put your work into getting it going as well as working with some great suppliers.  :applaud: :applaud:

That's a nice mancave, but were you drunk while shooting this vid? The camera was all over the place :P
