Title: Neo Geo Cabaret Reproduction
Post by: jbarnatt on May 27, 2010, 01:52:52 pm

I'm starting a new project. This one is a paid commission. Brand new Neo-Geo mini 2 slot MVS. I just layed out the template today.

The template before cutting. A big thanks to the guys at www.ggdb.com (http://www.ggdb.com) for their accurate dimensions.

It must be. I called it a cabaret even though it's normally referred to as a "mini". I sort of got tired of typing Mini MVS. It's smaller than a classic cabaret cab, but bigger than I expected. In the picture is my mini MAME, my 1 1/2 y/o son and the NG side panel template.

Thanks Jeff,

I've looked through your posts before, and that thing looks great. This one will be a little different because it's going to have a real 2 slot in it. I'm working out how to get the memory card and headphones slots to line up with the front.

It was Neo's "real" cabaret. This isn't mine. I do have one, but its still waiting to be restored.

I thought that was what you meant. Well it's not for me. This guy wants the normal red one.

Almost finished. I just need the guy to pay me so I can buy the rest of the materials.

Lookin' good so far :applaud:

Instead of cabaret/mini, perhaps you could call this a Baby Neo Geo cabinet?  :laugh:

I guess you could. It's almost and exact copy of the actual Neo Geo mini-MV2.
