Just bought an arcade machine!

It looks like Henry is scared and initimidated by this new, giant, arrival and is cowering hiding his face away in FEAR.

Also for 8.50 that's pretty sweet, even if you just gut it and put a MAME PC in there and give the can a lick of paint it'd still be cheaper than buying and making a cab yourself. Have they got any other machines they are flogging off cheap like?

Only problem could be the steering wheel, you would have to remove that also.

I am happy with it the way it is for now, if I get bored of the game I might consider putting a MAME pc in it in the future.
Today I cleaned it out with my Dad and he brought round a bulb for the marquee.
Here are some before and after shots.







Now it just needs painting really.

Looks great. Pretty clean as far as arcade cabinets go. With a real arcade monitor it is crying out for a MAME conversion. I think you can actually setup a JAMMA cabinet to switch between the original Jamma hardware and a MAME PC. If you are interested in this let me know and I will get more info for you.
