No arcade stick?

I use a Dual Shock controller which is located to the right of both pics in front of the speaker even though it's a little hard to see.

I do plan on getting an arcade stick for when I play the hacked, sped-up version of Ms Pacman. The d-pad on the Dual Shock doesn't allow me to react fast enough.

This thread inspires me to make my own tate setup instead of getting a second cab! Going to search my local craigslist, yardsales and get creative like the rest of yall

Got done modding my iCade to my liking a few months ago

And for the final, the set-up of the upscalers...

Why so many different XRGB's? Is that a mini there also? The Gefen VGA to DVI Scaler plus outputs VGA too?!!

[Fudoh]

The Gefen VGA to DVI Scaler plus outputs VGA too?

yes, it's fully DVI-I compliant, so DVI-D + VGA.

[fafangus]

Why so many different XRGB's? Is that a mini there also?

Yes all the xrgb present here - except the D.I.S.P.L ...

It's for the mighty collection !!!

And to see the evolution(s) between one and other, when I got time I would made some video capture of a same game with all the xrgb in different way of upscaling...

Or maybe I'm just nuts and crazy about Micomsoft's baby

[Xyga]

Always wondered how's the XRGB-1 behaves in practice.
There's very few information around.
Is the picture quality really worse than the 2's ?
Does it cut a number of lines like the XRGB-2 does ?
Does it have a wider hardware compatibility like the 2 as well ?
Etc.

Do you like it?

Yeah looks slick man.

Do you like it?

Strongly considering getting the same monitor you have. Is there a 27" version?

I've always played shmups yoko. Never had a rotating monitor, seeing all of these pics is making me consider getting a rotating monitor. Does playing tate improve performance in anyway?

[-S.L-]

Not really. If you are used to Yoko, no reason to change., it just look a lot cooler in Tate

[amdiggywhut]

I'd say that a dedicated tate setup has helped my play, personally.

But yes, hard to deny the coolness factor.

[MSZ]

Does playing tate improve performance in anyway?

Yes, definitely.

My half cab with SD CRT running in Component Video. It's still a WIP.

That's pretty cool. where did you get the "lower half" of the cab? Build it yourself? I've been looking for something like that.

I had it built by Vincent from http://arcade86.com/ out in Los Angeles, CA

Gonna quote myself from an SRK post, I've since put in some Hayabusa's instead of the Sanwa JLF's. I really like the feel of the sticks. I've also added 2x MC Cthulhu's for my systems.

I found pictures here on SRK of an almost identical build, I decided I wanted one built. I purchased a Lindbergh panel with an Astro City layout and overlay from the Great Jasen Hicks, www.jasenscustoms.com, and found local builder Vincent to make the cab, www.arcade86.com, for me. I think it turned out great, I just picked it up this weekend and have started wiring it up. I still need to pick up a few odds and ends for it, like a black mat or piece or carpet to put under the XM2960 monitor, so it doesn't scratch the top when I rotate it for shmups.

The cab itself was $300, panel was ~$120 shipped, Sanwa buttons and sticks were $95 I think. The reason I went this route was ease of use and parts replacement. I don't need to source any hard to find arcade monitor parts if I don't want to. I can set it up for HD monitor use later as well, plus I am using a PS pad hack and converters to hook up my consoles, and I have a SuperGun set up for it as well.

and some rough dimensions I took from a friends Astro and a pic of the build I stole the idea from.

that's pretty awesome man. thanks for the info

Thanks, and you're welcome.

This is my home made mini cab. Mostly used to play XBOX360 games, and occasionaly the Dreamcast (though I don't have many TATE games for it). I built it some time ago and made some changes recently, an illuminated marquee and a global power switch under the panel. This is an old pic, but you get the idea.

Ahah cool stuff man
