Title: Paper Arcade
Post by: clanggedin on August 03, 2004, 06:21:09 pm
OK.. So I'm looking through FHM (didn't order it.. It just started coming to me) and they have a page showing tiny arcade cabinets. It's called the Paper Arcade

They have 10 cabinets and a chage booth for download and assembly. Check it out

I built the gauntlet one the last time this was posted.
Word to the wise, DON'T use standard paper, use photo paper or something. Mine's flimsy and warping and all sorts of stuff
Looks like I built it all out of MDF on a rainy day.

I guess yesterday called and wants its thread back.

Sorry for the repost. I guess I got too excited (may have been from the girls in FHM).  ;)

So I was bored this morning and procrastinating and decided that a galaxian paper arcade was needed--submitted it to the guys at www.wayoftherodent.com so we'll see if they will agree to host it.  here's a thumbnail

need some spare cash? print it, make a balsa frame and put it under a plexi case and sellit on ebay to someone with too much money as seen in the thread nearby...

Yeah, I know it's not arcade related, but seeing the paper arcade machines reminded me of this, so I just had to post this link:

Oh man..the funniest part is that he thought (or was hoping) that the first picture was authentic and the second picture was photoshopped--poor guy felt bad for him after this last exchange... :laugh:

Lol, I posted pictures of my PocketGalaga cab in the same way (in the projects forum). First with my brother faking real size (non photoshopped btw) and then with my cat showing actual size. Now and then I still get e-mails about how big my cat is ;)
