@Yaroze: You're mistaken. He's recreated the Sega Lindberg cabinet to the best of his ability. It just looks different than candy cabinets.

Looks cool but then again i'd never call this cab a "cab" since it's just some stand for a standard HD TV not the kind of dedicated cab that a candy cab is for example :( But great nonetheless

@eastx: I'd like to hear about it since I'm working on a cabinet of my own right now and was hoping to interface my 360 to it as well.

That is awesome - it's just like the cabinets my Grandpa used to make in the Old Country.

That's one of the best looking fan made cabinets I've ever seen. Really nice job, I really like the head to head style arcade cabinets, almost as much as I like the old cocktail style cabinets. I've wanted to build a cocktail style cabinet for a really long time, those pictures are inspiring!

Very nice. My expectations were low based on the "concept drawing" so I was pretty blown away. Nice set up Luke (tricky bastard)

Amazing, Amazing work.

@futurebiblehero: Everybody should build a cabinet at least once in their lifetime, even if it is covered in a million trackballs with an old CRT screen.

It's not that good looking. Or at least that's what I keep telling myself.

It's really rare that you find a homemade cab that's so stylish (that's not covered in a million trackballs, marble linoleum and and an old Dell CRT framed in black posterboard). Hopefully this has significantly raised the bar for cabs. I know that a lot of custom sticks these days (Byrdo, Paik4Life etc) are so nice that us amateurs are ashamed of showing our own.

Impressive stuff...and something I could probaly never afford to do xP I love stuff like this, I remember I help some build a MAME machine once (he did buy the original machine, but it wasn't what he wanted for the arcade place and so use Mame instead for it) Was pretty simply since all I did was help him set it up when it came to the software side.

UmeShoryu, thanks! I do have a thread with full instructions and diagrams in the SRK Tech Thread (my name is Bomberman there). I want to encourage more people to do multi-system sticks. Technically, that's what LA Akira has done here too, but he used 2 PCBs instead of 3.
