Hi all just registered, but have been coming to this place for years. I've just recently got a new (better paying) job and am now thinking of forfilling my dream of an arcade cabinet in my home! :D
Just a Few Questions first.
I have a Microsoft Xbox and have found a guy who sells Cabs with the monitors in them, i am wondering what to look for. I want to play xbox titles like Capcom Vs SNK 2 and Soul Calibur II, also i have the Xbox MAME and have a few games such as frogger and pacman, and would love to play these as well.
I need help with info on what arc monitor should work and what cords/connections i need to hook the xbox up to an Arcade Monitor?!
Thanks, any help is very much appreciated!
Cya!
====EDIT: Or would it be better to buy the cab without the arc monitor and buy a tv and put a bezel over the face of the tv? whats better? Thanks.

I think you answered your own question. For an Xbox based cab go for a TV.

yeah if it's just xbox go for a TV. That would be the absolute easiest solution. S-video at least, too.

If you are in the UK or Europe try a Xbox SCART connector for your TV.
