is a 10'x10' room to small for a modest arcade room?
Anakin:
I have one room in my house that is all mine to do what I want with. Only problem is, its the smallest room in the house. I wanted to put atleast 2 cabinets and 1 driving sit down cab in there too.....Anyone think this is to small of a room? I was planning on making the 2 arcade cabinets modeled after a UAII and the other off of NFL Blitz cabinet dimensions...
ChadTower:
I've seen game rooms roughly that size. The issue is usually that once you get 2-3 games in there it's a ---smurfette--- to get them out again since you can't do a lot of maneuvering if the doorway is regular sized.
Herk:
Anakin,
You only have two rooms in your house? :laugh2:
Couldn't resist,

shardian:
Get yourself some graph paper and lay out the room with some generic cabinet measurements. Assume each machine has a 30"x30" footprint, and you could fit 5 games in there comfortably.
ChadTower:
Make sure you have enough outlets in there, on proper circuits, and also a way to vent hot air. It will get hella hot in a 10x10 room with 5 cabs on.
I'd probably top out at 4 games, myself, just so that there is room to rotate one for when you have to work on it/swap one out.
