Title: Dimensions for Capcom Showcase Cabinet
Post by: tornado-claw on August 13, 2004, 12:05:00 pm
I have been searching for a couple of weeks for the dimensions to a Capcom showcase cabinet like this one:
(http://www.quarterarcade.com/img/vol2/3838_1_fs.jpg)

Capcom made several variations of this design, where the marquee is in a separate box above the main cab, and the speakers are where the marquee is usually located on most upright designs.  This cab was used by Capcom for several CPS2 and CPS3 games.  I have never seen anyone built this type of cab nor can I find the dimensions on line.  Can someone help me?  

I plan on building this type of machine housing a computer and a supergun.
I will document the build stage and have available design dimensions for all variations of Capcom cabinets, post-Street Fighter II (Street Fighter II cabs are well documented).  
Thanks, Tornado-Claw

I don't have plans for that particular style of cabinet on my website, but please look around on there for some similar alternatives.

FYI, that isn't a 'showcase' cabinet.  This is a showcase cabinet:

Jakobud,
Nice site.  Any chance you have plans for a real Showcase cab anywhere ?.  I'm drooling waiting for the Mamestrosity plans to be ready.

Funny you mention that.  I was just going to go to a Boomer's Arcade this evening to get measurements for one.  Hopefully I will post them by next week sometime.
