I did a few different sizes that are about 4 inches each I used the numbers that were in the photo you had. Wasn't sure if you wanted a specific title or serial number. I could do those if you want. I hope these are decent enough. I've also replicated Atari, Midway, Williams, Dynamo game...

Nice! I could try to redo that side art if I ever got a good quality picture shot of the side art. Just realized when uploading. I need to reposition the CRASH word mark more.

1st pic is the rare alt side art of many for SF1. This was taken from the moon shape cab from the OSAKA museum. The second is my art kit that I did for a mini arcade and I redid the bezel, marquee etc. I REALLY want that marquee with the wicked looking Ryu on it. Can't find a good enough...

I guess I wasn't the only one away for a long while. Has any new artwork come to fruition since 2023? I took a crack at doing my own custom from scratch creation out of photos of a Japanese Capcom Museum out of Oaka. The side art is one of the few variations that Capcom did for SF1 with a...

Retroman if I am remembering correctly. Not sure how active he is on here. I too noticed this when I was looking for some artwork the other day. Hope it gets back online soon, it's an awesome site.

True! & nice cab BTW! It will be exactly 20 years this July when TTT came out in the US. The arcade I worked at, and every arcade I went to across the country back then, had TTT in the Dynamo Showcase cabinet. Once in a while I would see a really nice one in all black like this, but 99% of...

Strange. Just saw on the local news today how a goodwill employee helped a woman recover around 8 grand in bills stuffed inside of an old shirt of her husband, that was donated to them. They showed this orange button up with this one tiny pocket on the front. First think I thought was...

Nice how this thread has come a long way. These moon shaped cabs are starting to come out of the woodwork now. Congrats on your find Bio. You really need to get that evil ryu looking marquee that's on the Japanese machine a few pages back. Great job on the art restore BTW.

Dude you have the coolest home arcade. I mean it's the small details that really killed it. ie: retro food packages and cassette tapes left on the machines. Plus you have Terry's red cap on your neo geo. lol good line up of games and other accessories in your set up.

Never expected to find something like this when doing a search of WoW. I also miss my cabaret WoW. So now i'm in the hunt for a WoW machine, I want that game back! The proto-art looks so wicked-creepy!

I was five in Dallas Texas and I remember playing 3 games at some hole in the wall arcade. (My parents tell me that it had to of been at a drive in from what they remember) Don't know the exact order, but it's my earliest remembrance of being at an arcade. My dad and mom were playing some...

This was another good read from Ashcraft. He has written a book about Arcades in Japan, and some others that talk about Japanese cultures. I lived in Japan for many years and one of the things I miss the most were the arcades. I was lucky enough to get a SEGA Blast City candy cab from a...

I saw that too, and never realized that capcom didn't implemented a medium attack. And I've been playing that game how long? I think it was because I was too focused on doing certain moves rather than if I was doing strong, fierce, or jabs. All I knew is that I could die in two lousy hits if...

They are currently working on 3.0, VP has been posting clips of it on YT. Wonder when that will be released? http://youtu.be/VEHLbojYRhA

I agree about the Tekken conversions in random cabs. Even though Namco sold the series as kits with a couple that got dedicated cabs, it still irks me how some people just threw them in any old cab that had button and sticks. Kit artwork has been so shoddy half assed when Namco distributed the...
