If you look at the bottom closely, you will see brand new treading for the cabinet which will get its share of shoe markings but will prolong the life. The PC at this time is a Celeron 400 with 256MB of RAM and a ATI Rage PCI card with TV out. The marquee can be found here along with other great examples and tips. Temporary marquee printed up in three pieces on my HP Deskjet 5550 printer and taped on inside of plexiglass.
The following pics present the first development of its progress. New Creative Labs Inspire T2900 2.1 Sound System, New Control panel (X-Arcade Components), Overlay, Marquee and plexiglass. This entire process believe it or not, simply took about a week. On this website you will see many pictures of the transformation of this cabinet along with tips and howtos. You yourself, may be able to find a simliar cabinet for less or free. After some searching, I found an empty Virtua Fighter 2 cabinet which worked out perfectly. After reading for hours and hours I started my quest in searching for a cabinet with a large enough control panel (joystick area) that would suit the X-Arcade to be dropped in. Jumping online, I learned of people creating MAME arcade cabinets and this got me even more excited. I purchased one and hooked the X-Arcade up to my home theater PC and had a blast for several months but it left me wanting more. Recently I discovered a product called the X-Arcade which gives you a real arcade feel of control playing games. I first learned about the program called MAME years and years ago and I enjoyed playing the classic games that were no longer in many arcades with it.
