Nice set up dude, very clean. Hard watching / gaming during the day though being in front of the curtains?

I would post mine, but I can't find the pics and am too lazy to take another photo. Maybe will get something up tomorrow.

Although I've slightly redesigned how the monitor is set up now (less flat angle), and added a black bezel.

Hops i close the curtains son never played with them open...EVA


Fluxcore, you got the 6 buttons functioning with Mame? would be good to get the screen to fill the cab out, ive got a Street Fighter cab here at my house, it currently has a bustsed powers supply and no one where i live services them, i was thinking about rippin it all apart and at least making my own custom stick before i got my Hori one.

Yep, I actually have the sticks hooked up to hacked playstation pads, and then to ps2->usb converters (no lag ones). All the buttons function in mame no worries. The screen is a 19" lcd, which I think actually displays things pretty decently (although a bigger screen would fill the cab a bit better).

As for your cab, I recommend shoving a computer in there and making it a mame box, so many systems are emulatable now that you can play almost anything on them

These pictures are old but give you the general idea:



Please note that since this was taken I have added about 7 or 8 more games
