From Jantec sign co. She said they had great customer service and worked with her on the design. The B and the K are capitalized how I normally do. The first mockup had a space, but they corrected it.

She is the best gift giver. I try hard to outdo her, but never have for 15 years. Her parents went in on it with her. She had been working on it since october. It is insanely bright and beautiful. I got her a nintendo 3DS. looks like she wins this round ;)

Made a new BorKade walkthrough vid to show it off.

Not only did you get the perfect Christmas present, but you got it EARLY!!

I like early Christmases! :D

The gift definitely shows your wife's dedication to the arcade cause! As well, it must have been fun consulting on the custom sign - I know zero about the manufacturing, so I can see it being a real interesting foray into a business most people don't have the chance to look into.

I think Zoe approved as well.
 
Nice!

My wife made me one too for my b-day a couple years ago. Nice stuff!
 
She hardly ever plays my games, and double flips often, but she knows how happy having a mini arcade makes me and nailed it this time.

I got it early because part of the warranty requires you turn it on within 24 hours of receiving it.

It is insanely bright though. With my currently limited space I have it hanging in a place where it makes me a bit nervous. I might screw it into the wall just in case.
 
32 x 16

One of their standard sizes. I am guessing it cost near $400 after shipping. I have wanted a neon for years, but around here used ones are usually over $200.
