arcadebasement Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Okay take a look at this pic in an ebay auction I just found... Funky side-art and colour right? But it's nicely done... Plays the games listed So aside from it being pink what's so weird? Well here's why... http://cgi.ebay.com/Princess-Arcade-Video-...1QQcmdZViewItem WTH?

Crazy Climber Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Custom Cab?? I've never seen anything like it, someone spent a lot of time on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxsolo2000 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 My god that is so freakin cool. I remembered some years ago about some oil baron making a cabinet that his kids could play but I always thought it was a myth until now. Any history on the thing?

Crazy Climber Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 I'm assuming a 13'' monitor? ....or maybe smaller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassidy Nolen Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Neo Geo did a 2 slot similar sized. There were a handful of those in the mid to late 90's out there. Great for kids of course. I have worked on a few. The Neo's were 13 inch monitors. You can bearhug the arcade and carry it aroud, great for parties where games are rented! Otherwise I know nothing about the origin. c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heberts811 Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Could it have been one of these??? http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?letter...mp;game_id=8415 Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerG Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 That's tiny. I have played a Leprechaun at an arcade and I remember it being much bigger (like a mini-cabaret, but not knee-high like this one) and it is a dedicated game (actually pretty fun but easy).

Gregory DG Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 I bet the builder made it for his 3 year old daughter! Man, I should make a Mickey Mouse one for my son! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arcadebasement Posted December 3, 2006 Author Share Posted December 3, 2006 Given that each 2x2 tile on that floor is just 12" square, I doubt it has a 13" monitor. It doesn't nearly fill the width of the cab, nor the length (due to the CP) and since the monitor is placed vertically it should. I'd say 9" like the kind in some darts machines..

bcostin Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Aww, that's so cute. Perfect for a home without much space for a full-sized cab. I'd probably even leave the side-art intact, just for the additional weirdness factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Climber Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Neo Geo did a 2 slot similar sized. I must find one of those, how cool would that be to bring to your friends parties Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
