looks great you did a fantastic job on it, like I said before I used a 23inch screen lcd and fits just perfect in the Nintendo cab

I know in the cab pic you can't see but all around the monitor I just used a black piece of cardboard measured out the monitors spacing and cut it out to fit around it, so its all nice and clean in there. In the back its 2 pieces of 1/2inch by 3 inch wood on each side angled to hold up the screen. And one piece under it to hold it in place. The way the acer monitor is I never decased it was perfect to put the wood on each side and it just sits there never moves, no need to mount it down.

Thx for that ,

But can you take a few pics in front of the cab while running? Because i like to know how it looks with the bezel. I was wondering if you can see the whole screen and that there is nothing hiding behind the bezelartwork when you stand in front of the cabinet

Thx

ya looks great hold up Ill snap some, when your playing theres no issues of not seeing anything as your looking into the cab not at the cab.

Snapped them real quick hope it helps, like I said when your playing it looks great imo

Ok

that looks cool :D

thx

Mario kart? what kind of system do you have running in there?

All the system specs are in my post I did about the finished machines http://www.hyperspin-fe.com/forum/showthread.php?24735-Showing-off-my-finished-nintendo-cabs&highlight=donkey+kong+finished

All games running to 1080p 60fps, with plugins and filters and such ect ect lol. Went for cheap, effective but low power consumption to save on heat. Even added a couple pc fans to the back panel but its not really needed as its so low in heat even under full load from any of the emulators I have...which Is like anything from NES to Wii, dreamcast to lol everything except odd obsure stuff which I am working on adding just for the sake of having it. I also got ps1 games running fine in there.

Hope some of this info helps and can't wait to see yours all done up and running. :)
