As John would say...

OMGWTFBBQ!!!!

That is truly a work of talent, dedication, and pure love for the hobby.
 
I am speechless. That takes some incredible skill, patience, and determination to do.

I love how you made the entire thing in your living room!
 
Tell me more about your software setup..

I saw that you used Windows 2000 and Misfit Mame.. What else?

does it boot directly to the Misfit Mame then Tempest?
 
I just went back and looked at your other projects and I am blown away by your skill. Simply and undoubtedly spectacular.
 
Very nice work indeed. I have to question for you. Why didn't you opt into buying the white MDF? You would've had to simply paint one side (inner)black of course the edges and been done.

Nice idea .... but there is a problem, where to find the white MDF here in Italy :(
 
What do you see on the screen as the computer boots?

Would you post a video of the machine starting and going into Tempest?

I am putting a Tempest with a computer and an arcade 19" SVGA monitor.

I simply want the cabinet to play Tempest, but boot quickly!!

Awesome work on your cabinets too!!
 
That is amazing. Kinda wanted to see pics of the wiring under the CP. :) Down to the little details, like the cutout in the light/speaker "sled". I want to do exactly the same thing with Discs of Tron but that's total fantasyland for me. No way I can build anything like that, I just figure out a way to buy the original cabinet somehow!
 
Magnificent Job!

And you managed to do it in 9:59 min.
Video with music is super cool too.
