looks nice but wow… expensive.

Used sony KDL W900 which has really low lag time, think 19ms…that’s why I went with sony.

Yeah that’ll do the job.

Definitely not a cheap setup, and I’m no fan of that american button layout.

However it totally is sweet and the whole wall looks amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing. Wish I had that kind of rain to throw around.
Also, that geek-squad tv install.

the buttons are really close together…a little less than 1.5" center to center. Do people really notice if they are just a tad closer? If it’s super easy to hit all three top or bottom buttons together, that’s all that matters, no?

I saw the drama that ensued in your post over in BYOAC concerning the button placement… if you are good with it then it doesn’t matter what the internet thinks… personal preference trumps all that crap.

4 players in an SF themed cab feels weird.

Also, not a fan of the US layout.

10

But SFII had US layout…that’s the theme I was going for since it was the game I grew up playing.

11

I like it. I know you will be playing many other games than SF so I get it.

12

Grew up playing SF on Sega candy cabs so you’ll have to understand why this looks awkward to me.

13

Spoiled. LoL.

14

Asian. LoL.

Kaneda: Amazing job. I’m envious!

I too grew up playing on US cabs. Love the art/theme you have going on too. Also love how you decorated the room. Kudos to an amazing setup.

Candy cabs > american cabs

17

Some more photos of my game room, including my street fighter sota toy collection. What do u think?

18

I really like the pyramid of transformers

19

Nice. I love the champion edition love.

20

That is really badass but for cost why not get a real cab?

21

Depends on the game…

Its badass that’s why haha…If i had the skills i would make one but sadly im no jesus. Also, the thing w/ mame is that its so overwhelming. So many games to choose from i dont bother turning it on. I like dedicated cabs.

Cant wait for Spring/Summer, i really need to finish painting my gameroom & maybe chop my Universals.

22

looks really nice, im jealous

I have to agree with rcaido here. Some games a Japanese Candy cab does not do justice that a big American Wooden cab would do.

Big 4 or even 6 player games can only be appreciated in Wooden American Cab format. Notable examples are The 2 Ninja Turtle Arcade games, The original Gauntlet, The Simpsons Arcade game, Both D&D Hack and Slash and the HUGE 6 player X-Men Arcade (I am Magneto Master of Magnet).

On Capcom Fighters is could go either way except I now think American style parts are inferior, so its off fitting JLWs where those Happ joysticks one was housed.

Neo Geo never looked right to me in a Astro City cab, I am too familiar with the BIG RED Cabs we have in the States. Maybe some kind of Hybrid cab.

Old titles like Pac-Man, Donkey Kong and Mario Bros (no Super) also needs to be in Wooden cabs.

For some games the Cocktail cabinet really works for the game.
