I designed and built these.
-
Those don't look like anything Ond designed. Wrong thread.
-
You're right, my fault, I got lost in this thread jungle.
-
Well, they're interesting, to say the least. What's the story behind them?
-
That paint job... :dunno
-
Looks like a badly painted table holding a monitor and a fightstick to me ???

douchbagsayswhat???
Interesting design at least. points for locking casters.
-
While odd, it is an interesting design. Tell us more about the hardware? Is each person playing on the same machine, with the same monitor output? Is it a pc computer or xbox?

You sank my battleship!
Also curious to know if screen have option to share...

These look like they were inspired by a number of cabs.
There's also the Nintendo Vs. (http://www.arcade-museum.com/game_detail.php?game_id=8895) or the Versus City cabs, but these other cabs are a bit of a departure.

I think the design is innovative, but the details are a bit lacking.Did u do that paint job with just 2 cans of paint 1 red and one blue? I think I used about 15 on mine and 80% of the cab has vinyl on it. If you would do some better fitting, improve the finish put about six more coats of paint on it , add some capcom style art on the side, and a few LED's it would be awesome. Don't take it hard if u get dogged a little, look around at some of the projects on this site. There is a steep learning curve to building a well built beautiful machine.Remember the devil is in the details.

The sticks are just a bit too far back, I like the shape of the blue one better, but the speaker location of the red one better.I guess you need to make a hybrid of the 2 (purple I guess?)
I completely agree that they seem inspired by the versus city cabs.
I've seen worse first attempts.

Looks like a nice concept, especially if you have two smallerish kids that are into games. I think the removal of the fight stick, and incorporating controls into the area above the fight stick, and below the speaker, and finally flush mounting the speaker would give it a completely different look a feel.

Of course - because all that work would make it a completely different project! >:D :cheers:

I like the design. :cheers:

Looks cool to me. Would be good to see some better pictures and get some info on the system hookups.
