Converting a Playstation 2 Kiosk to a Street Fighter 2 style cabinet

J0hnick

Here she is



Your thoughts ?, is it more hassle then its worth ?. Right now I just have a PS2 in it with Capcom Classics Collection in it (which has the first 3 versions of SF2 on it), its nice an all ....



But not as nice as this :cool:

That isn't the one from the trinity building beside Pearse st station in Dublin is it?
I've walked by a disused one (its in a rec room/canteen near the window)going to my train each day for aaages .I Kept meaning to ask if it was for sale (as it looked unused).Anyway today the place looks like its being done up and the stand was gone!

That looks really lovely! I wouldn't be converting that into anything, looks great as is.

If you don't want it then sell it and put the money towards buying a JAMMA cabinet..which you can then turn into a SF cab.

There's your ticket to getting an arcade machine. Just convince your son he needs one for Christmas

Well you can join myself and Ciderman as people who have to sneak consoles / bags of games into the house incase the "boss" sees them and goes off on one:pac:

Excuses needed are not, just tell her it's happening. Scream & shout all you wan't, it wont budge the chipboard behemoth that now resides in the house.

Exactly lets see a mere woman lifting a 600kg sit down Daytona cab out of the house:D

And if there's one thing we all know about women, it's that they can't lift big heavy objects on their own

Just bring it in when they're outta the house, from then on there's nothing that can be done. You might need ear plugs for a few days, but like all women, they give out for the sake of it. Give it a week of two & during the ads for Fair City you'll hear Space Invaders firing up all on it's own

Don't underestimate the power of the opposite sex, they don't need to lift things out of the house, they just threaten the withholding of "favours" and you'll lift it out for them.
If that doesn't work, they wait til your at work, take a small axe to it and take the thing out in easy to carry amounts, and burn the results on the front lawn.#

Crafty buggers Women, they are pretty, smell lovely but boy, are they crafty...

Hmm, Cider does raise a good point. Arcade coolness, or biological duties...hmm :P

If you think about it its a win win situation but with the game having the ace up its sleeve

1: Go to bed = big grin when your finished

Vs

2: Keep Playing = Big grin when your finished
And the final boss doesn't want 2 cuddle at the end!

Word of warning before anyone try's this............... Jumping up with excitement when you beat the game will result in tears :eek:

"Quick look, a pink puppy blowing bubbles across the road!!!!"

Wife goes to check out this mythical event, while you shuffle in twin sit down racer, & plant it in the sitting room.

Wife returns

"I didn't see any pup....WTF IS THAT?"

Your response?

"What do you mean what is it? YOU bought it for me a while back rmemeber?"

Confusion ensues. Once confusion sets it, you can manipulate the situation from there out easily. The hard part is the distraction, but pink puppies blowing bubbles generally works well.
