dood ill just pay the you 100 dollars to build me one =P
i know im ive been working on mine for a while now X ] just the “mame” program is hard to get running
that cabniet looks like garbage.
Act Labs sells really good ones…
is it nesecary to do act so stupid? i mean just show us how to build it and leave out the cheesy shit
that one guy isn’t doing a very good disguising the fact that he is balding. embrace it and shave it
That’s not bad for $100!,but as far as hacking a game pad its not fun just go with the ipac instead.The problem with this cabinet it that their is no room to rest your hands on,he should of made it with more room.
Bad presentation … Bad cabinet..

Thanks for the info on building control decks. Im gonna try this with a few extra genesis 6 button controllers. They’re hooked to the PC through usb adapters. I have the genesis 6 button arcade pad but, I just don’t think the joystick feels authentic enough for Mrs pacman..

x arcade’s parts are shit for thier price, you should’ve gotten some sanwa or happ parts
awesome! you did a fine job!
Oh god, marble contact shelf paper.
im gonna build an arcade box that hold game consoles inside, & TV for gameplay
I WANT AN ARCADE IN MY BASEMENT!!!
wow that is just painful to look at.
no. he said he had some USB game pads to look at. and i hacked a snes controller before. it dont look like that.
i went on x arcade and it was 40 bucks!! wtf.
This video was made more than a year a go, so my guess is, that the special offer is long over…
x-arcade parts are really not that good… if you want an American style arcade stick you should stick to happ, it costs more but it’s worth it.
lol damn it paint
wow this video was tastefully corny. if that makes any sense.
hey bro. how do you hack a ps2 controller? can anyone tell me
I’m starting to build my own… I’m working on the side panel measurements. (Kind of difficult).And by the way… The “n00b” arcade machine at my pizza resteraunt is an original Centipede arcade machine.
cool mine is a original packman arcade machine.
too bad there is almost no more arcades.
what program did you use on the computer to make the design model?
It’s really sucky. I can’t even play new fighting games anymore because I don’t use consoles.
that guy!!..the one on the left, the one that was sitting on the couch….he has the exact same controller as me!!!…thats a kool coinsidence!!!….LOL…..
My compliments. My arcade is going to be much more expensive but your video has been quite informative. Thanks a lot, man.
STUPID VIDEO GAMES, hot chiks dirty panties are way better and cheaper!
I’m using an I-Pac now but if I use the USB controller how will Mame see the two controllers (a controller for player 1 and another controller for player 2) If I push “up” on player 1 will mame have in setup mode a way to see that it’s not player 2 pushing “up”?
fucking plexiglass is a really hard one to cut so it takes some practice
instead of donating money to schools for the save the music crap that kids are just gonna end up failing.. we should donate money for people to make more arcades for us to enjoy!..
It really doesnt recognize by controller, but rather by button. you would simply just map your buttons out but player 1 on one controller and player 2 on the other (start, coin, up, down, left, right, buttons 1 2 3 4 5 6..). it works out just fine
sweeeeet..i’ll build my own with sanwa joys and buttons:)(i wish)
sucks
@pyroandice either 1 of 2 things; your computer will be able to tell 2 usb controllers apart and mame just needs to be configured to accept that. Alternatively, use xpadder to map the 2 controllers to different keystrokes on a virtual keyboard (say, the directional buttons for p1 and wsad for p2) and assign those keystrokes in MAME.
Nice but how do you leave a quare of protect film on the plexi with nice edge and cut, without damage the plex?
how can i git somone to construckt me a cabnit for mugen
@robdun packman? Seriously? Are you a cheesehead Packers fan or something? lol…..try Pac-Man
@NightmareSkates really? this is really what you’re going to post? really? telling someone to hyphenate Pacman?
@fubucukiss PAY THEM sucker…
Cool cab’ brah let’s kick it old style nam sayin’? Real ill, we’re the chillest nerds this side of the old school. Engage the radical on my mark. MARK ha ha noice. Is my puka shell necklace sick or what?
how do you make a arcade stick?
dude, this is too complicated
Pizza shop had an arcade Neo-GeoMetal Slug X!!!!!!!!!!!lol b4 they close down…
Or, you use a desktop, search mame, and then mame roms, and grab yourself a usb controller on the cheap. Or, just use your keyboard.
I can’t find the cabinet file on the website whats the link?
i like your style!
@d3tach3d I like your moves.
Gimme a beat!
Sweet, this really helped me with the button configuration, I now understand properly how they function, thanks Hak5. ^^
@RamSG9 i know
What size TV is that?
