Hi!!! Few weeks ago I bought my first arcade cabinet with a Neo Geo MVS 1 slot inside. Its a generic cabinet but it was in great shape actualy. Its has some dent on it but nothing serious.
I bought it as an restauration project and because I alway wanted and arcade cabinet.
This is the cabinet:
Its look prety good, I love that Video Game marquee.
My idea on the restoration is "emulate" an original Neo Geo MVS cabinet, not 100% acurate to the original, but something like the original.
So, the first thing I did, was disassembling, sanding and repearing the dents on it.
Next step was the painting. I put 4 coats of paint on it to made it look good.
In the meantime, I've cleaned the buttons and the joysticks. I want to change them, but in the meantime I will use them.
Once I had all painting ready, I started to assemble the cabinet, starting with the backlight of the markee.
I'm still not finished yeat, but I'm very closed.
All I left to do it find the T-molding (something really hard to do in Argentina, I went to several places and I still cannot find it
), The vessel glass and the art work.
I hope to made all that in the next week or so.
I hope you liked it was I did with the cabinet, it's my first time working on an arcade cabinet, so I'm a neewby jejejeje
Best regads
PS: sorry for my english.
