Hartlcade (Completed Project)
« on: October 24, 2011, 02:43:00 pm »
Hey all, I've been working on a MAME cabinet for my room for the past couple of months and I just completed it!

How the cabinet looked before I touched it.


Overview of the finished cabinet


The front flips down to reveal the mouse and keyboard. It's a little tight, but it works.


Overview of the control panel. I used formica on the top as an extra layer of protection and as a trackball cover :)


Marquee


Front


Computer internals. It's a dual core Pentium D with 2GB of RAM and a nVidia 8600GT


Pinball flippers


Underside of the CP. Using a SNES controller connected to a parallel port as the encoder.

very cool idea having the cpu come out of the front like that.

Aww I liked it better before with the artwork and colour. But hey, to each their own.
