Being 6'10 tall I couldn't fathom spending money on the 3/4 machines. Appreciate this video, I think this will be the build I go with in a couple years from now. Too expensive right now
From experience I can honestly say that any full sized cabinet will end up being close to a grand unless you cut it yourself. CNC shops are a good alternative but they charge $60+ an hour and you have to buy the wood at $40+ a 4x8 sheet. Then you have to laminate, paint, or use melamine. Then you have to put the pieces together and they won't be elegant IKEA style cams and perfectly pre-drilled holes. If you aren't a serious woodworker it can easily end up sloppy and any big mistakes can result in buying more wood and going back to the CNC shop. And then there's all the little custom built pieces that cover unsightly gaps, line edges, you know, all the little things that give a professional appearance that will be missing when you just cut wood and put it together. Then all the custom artwork, control panel layout, marquee, controls, coin door, etc. It won't be like one of these or an A1UP where 3rd party arcade graphics shops sell compatible art, if it is a custom cabinet you need custom work, and that gets very pricey. A1Up is still the best option for the broke, but unless you find a full sized cabinet with plans and every part sourced, it is really better to build one of these. I do think it should come with a monitor for the price.
I wouldn't. I bought A1UP for the price and I've never been happy with them, even after modding them six ways from Sunday. Even if you're broke. Save, be patient, and buy a full size.
I put one of these together last month with my kids. We are n00bs are projects like this so it ended up taking 3.5 hours, but it works and we like the final product.
Fantastic video... ETA Prime... for someone who has only played emulators and Arcade 1Ups, I find this video very informative... One day in the near future, I’ll start to build one of these bad boys... and I’ll definitely refer to your videos... great work brother...
Prefect Video! I have the tankstick and been going back and forth on getting this cabinet with the tankstick cutout or extension controller. This video helped me choose
wow that's freaking sick! love the concept of the mini-monitor marquee that'll display the artwork for each game though. I know there's a light gun out there you can get that kinda does the wiimote thing but it's a real plastic gun like you'd use in time crisis or something (I think it may actually be a gun-con repro) so that might be the way to go for adding light gun support to your cab. awesome video man!
I've been watching all ETA videos for years, love the guy. At 5:06 I feel like I peeked behind the curtain to see the wizard 😂 Never knew what the man looked like 😄
Seriously I've been wanting one of those fully cab units but I didn't have the budget for them... but if I can sit down and still enjoy those arcade cabs experiences, I'll do it! I'm lucky enough that my father have those power tools in his garage and that I only live 1 street over from his place! I already have a capable PC to run Big Box and I only have to get a decent monitor and supplies to get this project started! Great video and keep up the good work!
now this cab is awesome, I thought about building my own. I can do it, I 'm just limited on the amount of tools I can use around here...so if I were to make my own, it woulnd't be as nice as buying a kit. I love these retro arcade vids, keep them coming!
I got extremely lucky 2 weeks ago and found the sit down version of this cabinet for $350 on that offer up app !! I always wanted one and was happy to get one after I herd they went out of business..
I love that system! The wife will think I'm nuts but I gotta get one, lol. Retro gaming is pretty much all I do in gaming and that setup is perfect for it. Can't wait to see more videos on it.
@@advancedvendingmachine8732 would it work with a cabinet with a tilted screen like the 80s Taito cabinet? I always wonder with the sensors and how they would compensate.
You mentioned there is a firmware update to recognize the controller as separate controllers? Can you please share a link on how to do that? Thanks in advance.
I have this same cab with the emulator edition + controller. I love it. I have a few suggestions. When putting it together, put some protection on the bottom panels that contact the floor. You don't want to damage the cabinet sliding it around. Also, consider that the pressboard material will absorb water easily if you keep it in a basement... maybe raise it up on something? If you use a tv, you may need to keep a remote handy to turn it on. I used a monitor that wakes up with the pc... minor issue. Finally, if you plan on putting graphics on the cabinet, bite the bullet and do it when you buy it. The controller needs to be completely disassembled, so at least do custom graphics on that when you order.
I've been following your channel for awhile now... but this... THIS is what I've wanted. A full size cabinet with a track ball and storage! THE BEZEL PROJECT seems awesome! ~US $1,500? Looks like I'm saving up. I can't wait
You can visit Rec Room Masters website, they have different size cabinets with different prices. I bought the full size cabinet that can handle a 27" monitor and with custom (Star Wars theme) side art, control panel and marquee few years back.
LED Blinky and HyperMarquee tied in with EDS... prepare for a headache, would love to see a video on that. I have quite a bit of experience with configuring all of that on my 4 Player cab. I will keep an eye out on that video. Keep up the great videos, very informative!
Great review, I have the same cab with the same coin slot. I had them do a custom Star Wars wrap on mine and it came out fantastic! I absolutely love mine and it's been through some serious Street Fighter and MK tournaments, and holds up very well. You can't go wrong with this company, highly recommend them.
can you please make a video how to connect the coin door cables to the control panel? (mine is pro, console version). i want putting coin functions as select button in retropie. i saw your other video but thats for arcade1up cabinet and usb encoder and buttons aren't same. please! thanks in advance!
@@kilkwon if I'm not mistaken the coin door cable is via USB, in MAME you go into the key assignment and set the coin door for credit or if you set the game on free play then you set it to start game. Most people use the coin door for credit/coin up.
@@retroforce6919 think i have asked in a wrong way. i would like to know the wiring, how to connect those two wires (green & white) from coin door to the select button on control panel.
@@kilkwon Gotcha, you connect the green and white from the coin mech to the blue and grey in the control panel. You'll need to drill a hole to run the green and white wires into the control panel. Hope this helps. Good luck 👍
I thought I wanted a full size 4 player cab, then I got one (an old Williams beast) and ended up selling it. It was monstrous and deserved better than to sit in my garage.
I have this cabinet and love it. Add a Dayton puck bass shaker to the bottom of the control board to give it some nice rumble feedback. Looking forward to the light gun video as I have issues with the Dolphin Bar getting set correctly in MAME for 2P. The Odroids work really well in the cabinet too flashed with the MiniPac Gamepad firmware. I also have a 29" Ultrawide up top and love seeing the Dynamic Marquee. If you find a clean way to insert it into the top of the unit, I'd love to see that.
I'm also looking for a good 2 player light gun solution for shooting games on my Xtension cabinet, it's tough getting Ultimarc guns configured correctly and to work well. But a recently funded Kickstarter might be the best option now called "Sinden LightGun". Looks like a perfect solution that also will have a recoil option.
I know you prefer lunchbox and big box, but I'm doing my project step by step. I just bought the 8tb hyperspin drive, and I want to attach that to a clean mini pc. Then to the Xtension cabinet. Anyway you could do a hyperspin arcade cabinet video?
I've had my RRM 32" emulator edition cabinet for a little over 3 years now and I still cant believe I own this thing!! Ive always wanted a nice hefty cabinet for as long as I can remember. I love it just as much now as i did when I bought it...totally worth every cent I spent on it!! I run everything on this...mame, model 2 and 3, demul, teknoparrot, daphne, etc plus tons of stand alone games also. Its my goal to "own" a version of every arcade game I can 😀
REALLY sucks to learn these guys just went out of business... they built me a beautiful Streets of Rage legacy cabinet all custom. Shortages buried them like i knew they would last year. So glad i got my cab when i did.
Have you done the video showing your install on that marquee and additional changes? I'm thinking of getting one of these myself and would like to see what could be done with more then the basic model.
I would love to see you do a legit Hyperspin build in this cabinet! I’m trying to get one going now myself and need some “Prime” advice if you know what I mean.
Awesome video! I spoke with the owner of Rec Room Masters a few months ago when I was up in Lawrenceville getting my BMW modded. He says they've been super busy for years manufacturing these cabinets and can't keep up with the number of orders every now and then. Where do you get a bus monitor for the marquee? I noticed some on Alibaba, but that's about it.
I would also like to see the light gun setup, it was my understanding that light guns will not work with LCD/LED TV's and neede CRT's to work properly but it has been awhile since i looked into it.
One of the more popular light gun is called "aim-trak" it's a really nice light gun. It comes with a IR bar that goes on top of a TV, that's how it works on a modern TV. You can buy one with built in recoil (force feedback) or without.
I'm looking at that Arcade Cab next to the Arcade 1up Cabs and that is a real arcade cabinet Arcade 1up could learn to make theirs a bit taller cause the risers don't do much to make them taller i'm 5'4" and they are tiny to me.
I am curious how you got the coin door to work with the rec room extension controller? Earlier video you showed it hooking to another controller board you had access to the button cables to add it. Was just curious how you did it with this one? Thank you.
I put together a Neo Geo bartop kit about a year ago with RetroPi and it's fantastic. "Someday", if I ever get the space, I'd love to put together a mini arcade of full size replica kits-PacMan, Galaga, Donkey Kong, Mortal Kombat, etc. (no way do I want to mess with original 30-40 yo PCBs, CRTs, power supplies, and so on) If you ever come across a company that makes such things, I eagerly await your review.
Curious what or if you did anything to fill in space/gap around your monitor? Ive seen people do things with black poster board. Looking at buying one of these but that gap or seeing through the cab would be bothersome.
I have this same setup as you but ate you using a controller emulator for your arcade buttons for all the systems? Could you do a video on how to set them up?
I built one last year... as far as the speakers go just open the tv and reroute the speaker wire to the top and use the existing speakers the sounds not amazing but let’s face it I turn mine on one a month so it’s a cheep fix that’s more then good enough.
Not sure if you'll see this, but I wanted to follow up about the tv you used. RRM just reopened and I ordered their 2p cabinet, but I'm trying to figure out which monitor to get. Should I just get any standard 32" 1080 tv, or go for a 32" gaming monitor?
What is the maximum depth that a monitor can be for this cabinet? I've purchased the cabinet, and have a 32" samsung curved monitor in mind that is about 4.5" deep. Is that too deep for the front panel? Model: HG70
What TV are you guys using in this cabinet? I am looking for 1080p sets and not the recommended 720p. I have seen a few people use the TCL 32S327, just wondering if anyone has tried other sets? Thanks
Awesome cabinet and great video review. I am looking to purchase that cabinet however I am needing advice or assistance on where to get a lot of arcade ROMS to play. I would like to have numerous games to include lightgun games. I know I can go the Jamma route using Pandoras box but would prefer Mame for certain games/lightgun. Please any help is appreciated.
How is the weight on this? I have a old mortal kombat 2 gutted mame cab with a 27 inch crt I'm thinking of ditching.. It's been getting a bigger cab again or the at games smaller cab thats bigger then the arcade 1 up.
Awesome Video as usual. I've always wanted to get one and set up the RGB buttons. Question, can the buttons be set up so only the ones being used light up? Meaning if I'm playing Street Fighter, all 6 buttons light up, but if I'm playing Altered Beast, only 2 buttons light up. That would be AWESOME !!
Did you happen to setup the trackball with BigBox? I can't for the life of me figure out how to get it to work. I am using BigBox and Mame on a regular PC with Golden Tee or Shuus and it doesn't seem to work.
awesome video! i have exact same cabinet and a dual coin door. can you please make a video how to connect the coin door cables to the control panel? (mine is pro, console version). i want putting coin functions as select button in retropie. i saw your other video but thats for arcade1up cabinet and usb encoder and buttons aren't same. please! thanks in advance!
Heard you mention PS4 when I spoke with Recroommasters they said that control board will not work with PS4 or Xbox, and that you have to use there Pro controller. Can you confirm if this works? I would love to get this controller but want to incorporate my PS4 and XB1.
Any way you could you do a video on how to setup your frontend to load upon turning on the PC with high priority, so the frontend (Hyperspin in my case) starts right away? I have mine set to open when the PC opens, but takes about 10-15 seconds to jump into Hyperspin once windows starts. I know there's a way to have it start up right away, right when windows turns on. Thanks
Being 6'10 tall I couldn't fathom spending money on the 3/4 machines. Appreciate this video, I think this will be the build I go with in a couple years from now. Too expensive right now
IKEA should get into the arcade cabinet business.
Exactly my thoughts! Haha!
Man that would be awesome.
I used a ikea wall table for my arcade awesome!!!
They might look something like my cabinets at Umbrella Arcades.
the fact that you want to use this beast mainly for cave games makes me like your channel even more. keep up the great work.
That was the best video I've seen of this arcade! I'm waiting on mine and now after watching this video, I feel no regrets. Thanks

Now that Rec Room Master went out of business, if you were to do another build like this, who would you use for the cabinet?

How is the weight on this? I have a old mortal kombat 2 gutted mame cab with a 27 inch crt I'm thinking of ditching.. It's been getting a bigger cab again or the at games smaller cab thats bigger then the arcade 1 up.
As soon as this is back in stock its mine.
ETA do you have a link to the digital Marquee and what software controls it?
Awesome Video as usual. I've always wanted to get one and set up the RGB buttons. Question, can the buttons be set up so only the ones being used light up? Meaning if I'm playing Street Fighter, all 6 buttons light up, but if I'm playing Altered Beast, only 2 buttons light up. That would be AWESOME !!
Loved it! Thank you
Did you happen to setup the trackball with BigBox? I can't for the life of me figure out how to get it to work. I am using BigBox and Mame on a regular PC with Golden Tee or Shuus and it doesn't seem to work.
Does the Bezel work with standard LaunchBox and BigBox or do I have to have Hyperspin along with Rocketlauncher installed?
Lcd Bus Monitor...What Exactly is that?
You sir are my hero.
awesome video!
i have exact same cabinet and a dual coin door. can you please make a video how to connect the coin door cables to the control panel? (mine is pro, console version). i want putting coin functions as select button in retropie. i saw your other video but thats for arcade1up cabinet and usb encoder and buttons aren't same. please! thanks in advance!
ETA Prime - what is the sexy big box theme you are running
Any updates? RGB, LCD Marquee? Wear and tear?
Heard you mention PS4 when I spoke with Recroommasters they said that control board will not work with PS4 or Xbox, and that you have to use there Pro controller. Can you confirm if this works? I would love to get this controller but want to incorporate my PS4 and XB1.
Any way you could you do a video on how to setup your frontend to load upon turning on the PC with high priority, so the frontend (Hyperspin in my case) starts right away? I have mine set to open when the PC opens, but takes about 10-15 seconds to jump into Hyperspin once windows starts. I know there's a way to have it start up right away, right when windows turns on. Thanks
looks very good, LCD marquee tutorial pls
