Custom Vewlix cabinet
« on: February 03, 2014, 04:19:43 pm »
Hi folks,

When microsoft and Double Helix announced a new Killer Instinct game for the xboxone i only got one thing to do,

Make myself a vewlix cabinet so i can play this fantastic game in all its glory

Ive been a KI fan from when the first game came out in 1994 till now (owned the dedicated machines as well but sold them allready  :banghead:)

My first plan was to make the cabinet exact the same like the Double helix team did but i would like to play other games on it too so i think the best i could do is make it a bit neutral. (black and white color instead of black red

in the future i will make maybe another control panel like an original vewlix cabinet

for now this is what i got the grey paint is primer.

from this



to this

Dual fight sticks will set you back another $400 for the official KI sticks.  :banghead:

I have an Xone and bought KI but I cannot bring myself to pay $200 for one fight stick, I wonder if anyone has made their own using an Xone controller yet.

Nice work on the cab.

Do you think that someone could make it a little bit wider and add 3 and 4 players in the same row?
Thanks!
