    Woah, awesome father! I don´t agree with whoever said the kid is going to be bored by the graphics cause good games are always good, and if she is the daughter of a gamer she knows it already!


    Beautiful arcade machine. When I have kids I´ll try to make stuff like that too. I´m currently building my own arcade machine now but I could make one for my kids too (when I have them). Props to him!

    I think the fact that the guy set up an OS/GUI for the games with "Bella's Arcade" graphics was just awesome. Great dad, lucky daughter.

    Wow! That's one awesome cabinet! Makes me wish I had one of these when I was growing up...


    Does the dad also have SF cabinets or fighters or whatnot? I'd want to see more of his work.

    Is the kid seriously named Bella? I feel so bad for her, what an awfully cliched name. I say this being from Rome.

    Seriously, this is like naming your kid "Pretty", it's a pet name.

    This is unbelievably awesome and has inspired me to make my own cabinet.


    Hopefully it turns out as good as this one.

    The sad irony of this is that the child will not likely even realize how much this kind of effort speaks about her father's love until she's much older and has squandered most of his good natured... goodness.


    Yes, I'm a pessimist.

    @dunetiger reads kotaku, seems pleased: She will, that's what counts. And her father feels good about it.

    And what that good will have squandered or whatever, IF that happens (I suppose even in your pessimist mind you can fathom positive family relationships) well at least she'll be able to remember and cry and say I AM SORRY WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO US DAD and he will say IT IS OKAY LET US HAVE A FAMILY GAME OF DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS SHADOW OVER MYSTARA like any real conflict should resolve itself.

    Man, that game rocks. I loved how it would save your character, too, so you could come back to the same machine and keep playing with your stats.

    i'm not sure about this one... the room is just screaming with gender stereotypes: purple hairbrush, enormous mirror for self image, jewelry box, very princess-esque drawers...


    is it just me? can't little girls have rooms without the over preciousness? will that cause them to grow up too tom-boyish?

    @FatherFingers: The true measure of a father's worth is determined by the arcade cabinet he builds. They didn't tell you that at the hospital? They were supposed to tell you that, it's very important!

    @metal face eagle premium: You kidding? Think about all the bonus points she'll get just by showing off that she has her own personal arcade cabinet!


    She'll have friends out the wing-wong! (that's where they come from, right?)

    @SketchyIndividual: I would hope so! It's just a kind of bummer that it's only got 1 set of inputs. I guess a USB game pad isn't out of the question, though.
