Hi All,
I live in NYC and have severe home arcade envy.
Unfortunately because I live in an apartment, space is highly limited and I have no place to do any sort of wood or electrical work....the sum total of my home "arcade" is a MAME setup w/ a 40" TV and 2 metro shelving units. One for the TV, PC and various arcade collectibles and one for my SlikStik joystick.
Games are huge and amazing and I live the real arcade feel of my SlikStik. Nowhere near authentic by any stretch but it's the best I could come up with years ago to maximize the variety of games I could play in one small spot while keeping the nostalgia factor as high as possible.
So as a closeted arcade purist at heart, I apologize to those you may throw up a little at the sight of my lovely Frankenstein. ;)
