Nope, pvm =/= Trinitron, trinitrons are just very good domestic tvs, pvms are professional monitors (with rgb scart, usually)

Heres my cabā€¦ It doesnt have lots of art on it like others cabs, but I prefer it simple. Took me a weekend to build and it includes a pc for emulating mame as well as a xbox 360.

Thatā€™s pretty slick. I like the light-up buttons.

1184

After a nice cleaning and Cap kit, we have this.

Currently housing a MVS 1 slot mobo. I may drop a 4 slot into it soon.

Also, snagged a new ā€œCoffee Tableā€ā€¦

Are those pins in your room or garage?

1188

They are in the game room. Current setup is these 3 pins, my Blast and Astro City, DK JR Cocktail and my desk / Gaming PC

Either of you guys beat wizard mode yet on sf2? Iā€™ve got down to 1 guy left but thatā€™s it. 524 mill high score

1190

I dont recall a wizard mode, my high score 420 mill i believeā€¦

1191

You get to the wizard mode when you beat all 12 characters, it lights up all the shots and you have to do them all with one ball. Its called champion challengeā€¦

1192

Not even close. My high score is only like 174 Mil. Still getting there.

1193

Yeah i havenā€™t done the Wizard mode yet, i keep get stuck on Guile i thinkā€¦

1194

Got two american cabs. Just about given up on modern fighters anyway so fuck all that console ish.

Blue Capcom Cabinet. Needs a cap kit, but we got it up and running with old Wico P360s that are quite possibly the best american sticks I have played on.

Former MK/KI cab with a great monitor. Happ P360s.

Yes, I do have the SvC board. That arcade owner must have thought SvC was going to save his business or something lol. Bought these off a local SRK member.

Needs more jap cabs. Still not up to Rcaidoā€™s level though. Damn you and your asian wife.

We are building a new control panel with sanwa clear buttons for our homemade cab:)
Here is a test run with mdf, to see if everything is ok.

Iā€™m trying my best to finish mine, but papers keep stacking on top of it. :slight_smile: I recently received my PS360+ pcbs, and hope to finish soon. Also, black poster board behind lexan makes a nice, inexpensive bezel (though not pictured) for the monitor.

1198

Done. Exceptā€¦ maybe I should build a bench.

1199

Looks great. Got any more pictures to share?

Iā€™m so behind on this topic. :frowning:

  1. Photos of my finally completed SFA3 and MvC1 Blast City restorations will be posted soon

  2. Decided Iā€™d get two of the slim Kraylix cabs within the next year and use Neutrik USB and HDMI adapters in the back to link connections for controller and video

  3. The arcade game that made me fall in love with cabs in 1989 at a Peter Piper Pizza in Phoenix was a Robocop. I now have one for myself. <3
    Just needs a new bezel and side art.
