Good fucking Lord. The inside of the control panel looks like center stage at your local strip club. Cheap led lights, mirror plexi, dust, fingerprints, and misc debris.

Oh Good, I was worried we weren't going in to space anymore...

Another batch of NZ style cabs:

I guess I just don't understand the desire to put a tv in a wood box.

Not sure what goes through some peoples heads when creating shit like this...

Ever see that episode of the simpsons where Homer designs his own big bulky dream car with the slushy holder?

 

[SNK416]

Thought this was a little massive.

 

[BLEAGH]

Gotta have 8 fucking buttons for players 3 and 4.

At least it looks like crowding 4 ppl around it would actually be comfortable.

Did he just take the top half of 4 Hori sticks and glue them to some particle board?

Hey guys,

Found this specimen on the Toronto Craigslist (http://toronto.craigslist.ca/yrk/vgm/5666385453.html). It's only $295, so not as insane as some of the other frankencabs on here, but feast your eyes on this bad boy:



Note the beautiful button placement. Looks super fun to play! Imagine playing Street Fighter 2 on that... Jesus take the controller!

Ignoring the button placement, I'd be more worried about the terrible LCD viewing angle. Even from those pictures, you can tell it's awful dark.

I have that same side table. Got it on clearance a couple years back at Walmart for under $6 lol.

Pandora's tub, lol. Sick kids kept the whole family home all day. Got bored and wanted to play games in a room that didn't smell like sickness, so I pulled out my parts tub and ghetto'd up a rig. This was the only place I thought it deserved to be. Haha.

 

[aoiddr]

Heh. Gotta do what ya gotta go sometimes. Reminds me of when I used a cardboard box as a proof of concept for my XX-in-1 rig so I could just get everything wired up and gaming as quick as possible.

 

[NGT]

Lol, I thought about just mounting it in a box, but I think my 1 1/2 year old daughter would probably jump on it and crush it. It's such an ugly hodge podge rig, but it does work, lol

great idea. looks convenient.

Found this elsewhere online... Wow, this guy needs 10 joysticks on his 2-level control panel?



Is this real life?

The gas cans on the floor next to it are a nice touch as well. You can tell what his other options was besides selling it.

 

[ChuChu Flamingo]

Ah the x-arcade stick and lcd monitor. He gets one point at least for playing in 4:3.
