Portable arcade game - Complete.

Hi guys,

This is probably my best work to date (it definitely gets easier with every portable).

Please take a look. Thanks.

May I be the first to congratulate you on a very nice job. Cosmetically, the thing is set up very nicely, and it's probably as small as you can make that arcade unit, no doubt about that.

May I make a suggestion, though? If you want that paint to last on plexiglass, I highly recommend roughing it up with sandpaper, putting on a coat or two of primer, THEN adding a few, light, segmented coats of paint. It'll look better in the end, and for your sake, last a lot longer as well.

Again, great job, and here's to seeing more of these arcade portables in the future! AYE! :lol:

Nice job! I think that's the first time that I've seen a PSone screen used vertically. Did you use the RGB signals from the MX5000 board? That PCB is really small.

Overall it's perfect, but I think you'll encounter problems with the way you cut the d-pad hole
