Hi I'm Dic

[bigdic]

Hey

My name's Dic and I stumbled upon this site by chance after doing some research on retroarch about a month ago. I have wanted to make a gaming table for a long time and relive the days playing commando as kid in the local pub, but never had a good enough excuse to attempt a project. My two kids have come to age where they can play games now and with the limited amount of simple storyline and control games that are available I thought I have my excuse to introduce them to some retro fun ! I banged together this from an old coffee table and now just working my way through the endless work of adding themes , other emulators etc.

Hey Dic! Welcome to the forums.

You have an awesome table right there!

They let you in the pub?? I had to sit in the car with a bottle of coke and a packet of crisps

Nice cab and similar to my own, I like the way the controls hide away and something I couldn't figure out how to do it.

Thanks for the welcome @ninja2bceen & @gigapig 

I had the same issue with the draw. I found a few different ways to do it properly on the web but I decided to go an easy option of just skimming down the draw and hoping it would look okay.

Welcome aboard, Dic! You're in the right place.

 

Nice table, by the way.
