It's been a passion project for the last X years and is going WAY too slow but I've just wrapped up doing the frontend stuff (literally today in fact) and I'm about to start getting it all together for wiring and so on. Here's some pics of the cabinet build I took last year.

As for my favourite arcade GAMES, probably the classics like Pacman and Space Invaders. I have a soft spot for 1942 and Roadblasters because those are the two I actually remember playing back in the day.

Now that is pretty sweet. Agree

Totally dig the artwork too with your own signature touch. I am curious, and I have no experience in building cabinets or what goes into it other than the PC/Monitor, but how actually did you do the artwork with printing to proper size and fitting it into the panels? I also couldn't help but notice but do the coin slots say 20 cents or 25? If 20, that's different.

Actually after reading this thread for a while, it really started taking me back to my days in the arcades and had some other long forgotten games come back to mind.

I use to love shooter games, and Beast Busters was one of my faves.

Splatter House

Black Tiger

Revolution X

Heavy Barrel

Good memories. Smile

With great difficulty!

I actually had to get the CP artwork printed about 3 times to get it to fit properly, at my own expense as well. Most other things I made sure to measure the size of the wood and translate it properly into photoshop measurements.

And the coin slots are just buttons with a graphic printed and stuck under the plastic Laughing

I'm extremely surprised to see that none of you have mentioned that Simpsons beat 'em up game:

I remember playing it in every single birthday party ever.

Two games: "Ms. Pac-Man" and "The Simpsons". Hands down.

Oh, someone mentioned "The Simpsons" before me. Still saying.
