This was a fun project I worked on for a company event. There is a bunch of detail about how it was done and what went into it on the blog post I made for their website.

I love arcade cabinets. There is something about this towering device made of pressed wood and wires. Having grown up in the 80s going to the arcade was a huge point of excitement. I still really enjoy playing arcade cabinets. So when we were looking for fun things to add to our office I suggested the arcade machine. The people I worked for generously agreed that we should have a cabinet. I started to research what it would take to do so. I didn't want to just purchase a pre build mame X games in one machine.
