Ultimate Dreamcast Arcade Cabinet
Posted: Mon May 23, 2011 9:50 am
Hey guys, figured I would post my project here in case anyone was interested. Trading out my 1xxx-in-1 Jamma for a Dreamcast setup. Admittedly, I will miss the 1xxx-in-1 for having DK and some awesome beat'em ups, but it will be a nice change of pace.
Part 1:
I am converting my generic cabinet that once housed a 1xxx-in-1 Jamma board to the, "Ultimate Dreamcast Arcade Cabinet." Should be running at 100% in a few weeks.
Specs:
Generic Cabinet with Sony 21" VGA Monitor, Happs buttons and sticks
Sega Dreamcast Console
2 MadCatz Light Guns ($40 together off of Amazon)
2 Sega Fishing Rods ($30 off of Amazon)
Wiring for arcade controls to DC ($100, again, thanks to HarumaN on Arcade control forum)
The plan is to drill one- 2" hole on each side for the light guns and fishing rods. Make a shelf for the dreamcast to sit inside of the coin door.
What I need (let me know if you have any ideas):
Holders for the rods and guns for each side of the cabinet
Here is where I am at so far:

Part 2:
OK, got all of the wood working done today.
Here is a video of all of it: http://youtu.be/hIu_kVhOisg
And here are some pics.
