Very cool, I think he got the style spot-on. Still, kind of an odd topic for a MAME arcade cabinet, but charming nonetheless.

That is hella awesome! When I have my own house, I will build something of that nature.

That's pretty awesome, besides being an x arcade I actually rather like how the control panel looks.

Very cool. The one thing about the x-arcade is, you dont have to pay for everything. Such as buttons, joyticks, or keyboard encoders. But very cool none the less.

Just stills. There was another post where he said those were carved and backlit.
