  • I want to build my own arcade controls!
Here is a link to the video:


I got the buttons from Paradise arcade shop, it IL translucent buttons http://paradisearcadeshop.com/il-psl-hoku/1309-il-psl-hoku-concave-pushbutton.html
and the RGB Inserts I used from Paradise were: http://paradisearcadeshop.com/button-leds/1835-il-lumination-rgb-5vdc-led-rev-a.html
I used a ipac Ultimate as the controller: https://www.ultimarc.com/ipacuio.html
I used some Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT joysticks with aluminum bat tops as the joysticks, and sourced non rgb buttons from ebay (start/credit/system buttons)
I got the 10' lcd and main screen from ebay. the main screen was a 26" samsung t260 mounted upside down for better viewing angle and fixed in windows software rotation.
The Cabinet was an old Golden Tee cab that was stripped down, repainted and a new control panel built, new plexi, new marquee added etc.
It took me approximatly 2 month to build to where it is now from all those parts. I already had the PC which has an i5 and a gtx 980 sitting around that i re-purposed.

Looks good. I like the use of a secondary screen, very original.
