That looks amazing, should fit a coin slot on it and license it out to the local pub.

There are 2 coin slots fully working. Excepts 10p / 20p / 50p and after some ajustments £1. These how ever are there for my kids to save up. There is a Credit Button for 1 and 2 player that my kids dont know about to allow free play.

I wouldn’t say a Q6600, 3GB of ram and 6.5TB of HDD space is low spec.

for a arcade machean its a high spec system. Allso the hardware installed with in the cab is all High end componats. Rember this is not a system built to show case the latest games, its been built for retro perposes and to show case a history of gaming. there is no need togo over bord just to play 1 single game.

Oky well i was going to show some final pics but and this is 1 big “but” the art work is rubbish. We unsealed the art work to find it has not been done as asked. Basically its all blocky from a low res print. Hmm … We handed over printers that were massive in size seemingly the printer didn’t understand my request.

Oh well looks like im going to have to spend some more money again and get it redone .. famous saying comes to mind “SH*T Happens” … hahaha

Well Mayhem, it may be worth it, because this PC-come-Arcade Machine is so impressive, we want to feature it in the magazine.
