Early stages of the arcade machine that will play all the classics. Mortal Kombat, Streetfighter, WWF, Nba Jam and the list goes on....

Hey that's awesome KJ, very cool indeed. I always enjoy checking out peoples DIY projects and look forward to seeing your progress with this, be sure to keep the pics coming.

HAHA finally got back into the Arcade after Coreys 1st cutting efforts and adding 200ml to every angle.

Its been cut down now, got a 22" sorted & machine to run things aswell as the MAME emulator..

Just need to purchace my arcade 2 player joystick and some speakers, make some skirts on the front so you can only see the monitor and paint it up and we all go

Looking good so far KJ bro, I saw it on Facebook yesterday......

Actually bro I started playing all those old school games last night after seeing your post, I have a few favourites back in the 70's & 80's.

I've got a mate who still has some of the old arcade machines stored in his back shed, he old man owned our local parlour.
I've been trying for years to score one but he won't bloody part with anything.

I use old nintendo 64 emulator and and sega to play old school games nothing like playing alex the kid and sonic good to see sum are keeping old school games alive

Haha NBA Jam was an awesome game. That looks like a primo control system KJ.

wouldn't let Matt get his hands on those... hes roughest person round.

Well after all this time since I posted in the 1st place the machine has risen from the dead.

Still no where near complete, however it was great fun and the hours got wasted away old school styles. Going to be great for drink nights in the shed.

Ok here is an update, we are finally getting through it

Mortal Kombat Spacies release party - plenty of whiskey downed




Taken apart for the rebuild


Screen tilted back, drawer added and speaker and sub system added


Finally painted black, needs another can to even out the finish, needs stickers added also, but pretty much done
