Title: Look, I built an arcade cab
Post by: abstauber on Sat 29/01/2011 10:12:34
I guess most of you have some hobbies, only the internet can appreciate ;D

For that reason please consider taking a look at my mini arcade cab here, which I've finished earlier this year.

Btw. I'd really love to see the AGS engine on Linux, so I can finally write a sequel to Aeronuts and build a SCUMM cab afterwards.

whaaa that looks amazing Abstauber :D
And works pretty well too, very nice.
Now let's hope you don't run out of miniature coins. ;)

Oh btw, you could try wine to run AGS games.

That's amazing...
You've inspired me to start up a new hobby... Giant beer bottles! :D

Sweet  ;D. I want to build one of those pinball ones myself (seen someone who commented on your video who makes stuff like this too and he had made one).

I thought you just made a little model of an arcade machine and thought "well that's nice", then I saw the video and was really impressed.

Thanks guys! This is still the best place on the net ;D

@Ascovel
Yep, the older you get the harder it is to find sufficient toys. I suppose if I got this during my childhood, I would have turned into that N64 Kid (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFlcqWQVVuU) :)

@Steve
But going commercial? I don't think I'd have the breath to negotiate with the chinese mass production industry... and who would pay 400 USD for a mini cab anyway?

@Wyz
Maybe I should go back to AGS 2.6 and use DosBox if I ever write games for it (or simply learn to use SDL). Wine has not been ported to Dingux at this time.

@Peder
Yeah, a mini pinball is indeed very cool. But as Pocket Lucho (the guy from YT) wrote, it's very pricey. I estimated around 800 - 1000 eur (Intel C2D, 2 screens etc.)
