How much wider is a widebody?

It isn't just wider, the control panel area is higher and deeper. The widebody side profile is different as well.
 
Wide Body

67.5" high
27.5" wide
33.5" deep

Standard

67" high
23.5" wide
33.5" deep

So, the widebody cab isn't much taller at all...nor is it deeper... just wider. The CP is higher as well and the CP is likely somewhat deeper also.
 
Do you have a widebody next to a standard Frizz? Do you think I am making this stuff up?

No...I took the dimension directly from the two fliers... if the information is incorrect, you might want to write Nintendo...

The control panel DOES sit higher but I think the overall height of the cabs is pretty much the same. No?
 
I've always hated how the mario cab has a different profile than the standard nintendo cab. Always felt it just should have been wider but the same shape and height. I plan to eventually build one from scratch that will fit perfectly in a nintendo line up.

It does however match the PC-10 and Punch-Out cabs. Not the overall height, but the control panel height and profile.
 
BTW - I just measured mine next to my DK cabinet and yeah, Friz's measurements seem to be right. It's an optical illusion.
 
Standard DK style cabinet is about 35" from floor to front edge of CP.
Mario Bros. W I D E is about 39" from floor to front edge of CP.

I find them both equally comfortable. Monitors are oriented and set in the cabinet differently so they both seem to work.
 
No defensiveness....Frizzy bear knows he's loved.

Personally, I like the way the Widebody is different, it's roomy like a cadillac.

Uh....where is the control panel height listed on the flyer... the TOTAL height is 67.5" for the WB and 67" for the standard...

EDIT: Never mind...addressed.

For standing up and playing the Mario Bros cab is more comfortable for me .
 
Nothing really, just watching a few listings and weighing out the differences. Should I have something up my sleeve?

Thanks everyone for the input.
