NINTENBOX arcade machine
Here is my 360/Wii arcade cabinet that i made for my kids.
It has a RGH'd jasper 360 mobo inside with a 250gb hard drive.It also has a softmodded Wii inside with a 80gb hard drive (put the Wii in as it was just collecting dust).Both machines are powered by a 500w atx power supply,which also powers 3 fans.One in the top,one in the bottom and a extra fan on the gpu of the 360 to help keep the temps around 45c to 50c which i am more than happy with.The screen is a 19" hd lcd tv which was taken out of its original case and i made a bezel to house it and relocate some of the buttons and ir.at the front of the arcade machine is a 7" lcd screen which will show game images on a continous loop like a digital photo but it is powered by a raspberry pi.Its a 1 player machine which i used a wireless controller (thanks to RDC for the help and advice) as it uses the left analogue instead of the dpad,allowing you to play more games.
This cabinet is only 4ft hight and 400mm deep so it fits perfectly in the room and for the size of the children.
Hope you guys like it smile.gif thanks for looking

i am proud,yes but i would like to be sponsored or even pay'd to create another just to do a few variations as the 360 is such a perfect machine although a gamin pc would be perfect but the cost would be astronomical.
Would'nt mind doing a pinball machine tongue.gif

I do like this. How long did it take to make the cabinet or did you just modify something that was of no use? I would love to have a go on it tongue.gif.

Nice. Where do you get that edge banding stuff for the sides? I've been wanting to build a replica Pac Man cabinet. That trim for the wood edge is the only thing I don't have.
