@@fuzzywzhe I emulate the Amiga quite often and enjoy every minute. I also have several real examples, though I rarely power them up now. Of course it's primitive compared to modern machines, it's nearly 40 years old.
I love that arty picture of you all that's in the background. It's so lovely to see that your search for a new studio brought you instead a whole bunch of friends
What’s crazy is that I’ve wanted to build a cab for years. Totally convinced myself I’d need to CNC the panels but wondered if you couldn’t 3D print a jig and use a router to cut out the shape. I figured if no one has done it before, then it couldn’t be possible. Yet here I am looking at someone doing exactly what I’d imagined and it is beautiful!!! Might have a resurrect my plans!!!
Back in those days it probably would've just been templates, like when he did one side and traced it for the other. As a metal fabricator, we would just directly draw the drawing dimensions on the material, ie, no need for those 3D prints, because things like that don't need to be CNC accurate to one thou.
im really glad you guys scaled back the sideart. if it was an 80s game it woulda been accurate but 90s games, so many were put side by side operators werent as bothered for most games since so many games came as kits more than dedicated cabinets. its perfectly simple and tasteful. makes it look like a long lost official cabinet
Another excellent video thanks! I got to see this cabinet in the Arcade Archive a couple of weeks ago and it truly is a joy to behold! Richard did a great job on the construction. It was also really interesting seeing the template jig in the video. I really liked the Z shape and the build and the finish are just top notch, so it's clearly a technique that works very well! I lack the woodworking skills and workshop area, so when I built my own cabinet I went down the CNC route, using a 2D drawing a friend based on my hand-drawn plans. The result worked well, but was obviously more expensive. I also wanted a curved control panel and achieved it by having two sheets of ply joined at 90 degrees with a simple quadrant strip filling the gap between them. So the curve of the quadrant basically curved from one flat surface 90 degrees down to the next. If anyone's interested, I made a video about it on my Dino Bytes channel - and if you're reading this comment Richard, that's where you'll also find those reviews of old cameras I was talking to you about! Cheers!
Love how y'all have a bunch of experts making this stuff. A vinyl person, a woodworking and 3D printing person, an artist, etc. All that made sure this cabinet looked 100% like it could've existed back then, not a garage built machine.
Wow, Richard did great on this project. It's like he knew exactly what had to be done the moment y'all decided on what cabinet style to use. Plus he got a nice workbench out of it.
@@RichRap3D I was very impressed with the workbench, I need something like it myself. May I ask where you got the lower section of the bench - is it just an industrial shelving unit?
@RichRap3D seeing your channel now makes a lot of sense on how you quickly did the arcade cabinet and did it professionally. You've been at it for awhile.
What a wonderful bit of restoration/preservation, and also of creativity with this new cab. It looks super professional. Love the old Data East stuff, so this build gets a massive two thumbs up from this guy.
The amount of care and effort to bring this to life is amazing to watch. Literally no other like it in the world - it must feel great! I did wonder though, did you have to do any haggling with any ip owners for permission to produce the artwork and have the cab on display publically?
I love all of your projects between the entire team. Really great fun to watch this idea of yours start from the little cave and become this empire of technology and fun you lot have put together. Bravo and when I do come to the UK for a visit I will definitely be booking a "ticket to visit!"
So glad somebody has finally done this. I remember playing the ROM on MAME many years ago, and always thinking what a shame it was that it never made it to production.
If you want to use that green fur just douse it in hair spray to stop it spreading around the cave. Works quite well. Source: me who made some "tribbles" and had the same problem!
E-Type and Lemmings were the two games I remember most from my early childhood (I had an Acorn A3000 just before I started school), it's so cool to see a scrapped arcade prototype being completed 30 years later!
Fantastic job to all involved. I love how capable you all are. And attention to detail is so important you ace every project. Good job! Cant wait to see this cabinet for real.
I remember cabinet making on my first job as a trainee, it was a computer and electronic engineering course in a kinda YTS sort of thing and I became proficient in Prestel but also working on JPM fruit machines which occasionally needed a cabinet rebuild, sadly I got kicked off the course when at Redhill campus of the college using my Sperry Univac I discovered a way into payroll and quite generously gave every employee of Surrey County Council a 50p pay rise... Weeell SCC did not take to the idea of unprompted pay rises much and I got called in and told never to darken their doors again and never got to take my City & Guilds exam either. 50p in 1984 was a nice bonus to have, packet of 20 ciggies cost 38p. C'est la vie :D
My dad would've wasted so many coins on this. It'd end up being us trying to drag him out of the arcade instead of the usual. As for the cab, great stuff. I think plywood was definitely the right choice, I find MDF just doesn't do it for heavier jobs like this without a metal support frame, and you'd find yourselves having to keep repairing it, this should last a good few years, if not decades.
Would original 80s/early 90s cabinets have been chipboard? I seem to remember some of them shown on the channel were and needed repairs where they'd gotten damp in poor storage. Chipboard isn't the nicest material either, very heavy, but I feel it's less prone to chipping than MDF.
Today I was looking at my games and I found the lemmings game for my PSP I was playing it for a couple of hours and then I went to see some TH-cam videos and then your video is popping up that was so weird😂 really really really nice job guys keep it up🤘😎
Not seen a video in a while hope you are keeping well, and things are on an upward trajectory for you and the cave. No doubt something big brewing, all my best, Love Rob. 🙂
Great project, fantastic build! It's like recreating an extinct species from a DNA sample. I like the artwork around the monitor. I'm sure this cabinet would have been very popular.
Amazing final video of this un released game , as usual treated with the respect it deserved with help from the amazing team and the original programmer
The grey (and blue Euro) Data East cabinets were manufactured by 3-KOAM, a rather small shop that hit their peak in the early 90's. 3-KOAM also manufactured all of the Neo Geo Cabinets in the US as well as the Z-back cabinet. The Z-back was far more widely known for Street Fighter II Hyper Fighting than they were for Night Slashers and Fighters History. They also were not available with a 19 inch monitor. Personally i would have simply copied the Blue (Euro) Robocop and used a flat marquee than have put Lemmings in a Z-Back. As far as any of us researchers can tell, 3-KOAM sold data east style cabinet in black with a flat marquee.
Great job to all, especially on the artwork. I also like the mirrored trackballs so a left/right handed player could play either side for comfort. Adding some lights to illuminate them would really make it look good.

Richard really is a bit of a genius at this niche.
Had the pleasure to be the first visitor to play on this yesterday! Thanks Holly for being a great host, really enjoyed our chats.
A literal workbench in Amiga Workbench 1.3 colours. Makes an old Amigan very happy.
I noticed that too.. good spr
Install UAE and play around for a bit, your nostalgia will be cured in short order. In comparison to modern machines today, it's downright primitive.
@@fuzzywzhe I emulate the Amiga quite often and enjoy every minute. I also have several real examples, though I rarely power them up now. Of course it's primitive compared to modern machines, it's nearly 40 years old.
Well spotted! Great touch by Richard!
No kidding.
totally blown away at how stunning the finished cabinet is... A true work of art... Just wow...
That’s a beautiful looking cabinet, great work guys. I love that you’re using modern tech to build retro tech.
Oh no! *pop* Done! Thanks

Brilliant, it looks amazing. Amazing work, folks! Also love that you called Mark a Lemmings Fan 🤣🤣🤣
Nailed it! That totally looks like something from 1991, not a modern homage. Well done guys.
I love it when an arcade plain comes together, you are the A-Team of retro 😂👍👍
I have an obsession with unreleased videogame related stuff seeing this brings me a lot of Joy ❤
im really glad you guys scaled back the sideart. if it was an 80s game it woulda been accurate but 90s games, so many were put side by side operators werent as bothered for most games since so many games came as kits more than dedicated cabinets. its perfectly simple and tasteful. makes it look like a long lost official cabinet
Awesome, I was able to watch Richard make this. His 3D printed jig is pure genius🎉

Richard needs some Amiga graphics on that work surface so it can be an Amiga Workbench 😁
Workbench 1.3!
You got it - Exactly 😜

That jig is amazing.
The cabinet is awesome, congratulations! I wonder how many people are now envying the arcade-style workbench, however. You may have started a thing!
Wow, Richard did great on this project. It's like he knew exactly what had to be done the moment y'all decided on what cabinet style to use. Plus he got a nice workbench out of it.
Amazing job, looks totally professional and a proper fit for an arcade. Well done to you all.
I would watch a YT channel that just shows Richard's woodworking.
Thank you, I have lots more planned for the Arcade & Cave.

@@Petertronic Yes, it was a strong rack unit, cut down and the added worktop sheet makes it really strong and stable.
@@SockyNoob thanks, glad you liked it. Lots more to come.
Awesome - Lets Go!
The sound effect caught me off-guard 😆
Simply stunning work. A classic reborn and a world exclusive real arcade variant. Superb reinvention of Retro rech.
What a wonderful bit of restoration/preservation, and also of creativity with this new cab. It looks super professional.
Love the old Data East stuff, so this build gets a massive two thumbs up from this guy.
Wow, that turned out fantastic! You are absolutely living the dream, Neil.
Looks great and I really enjoyed the video. Love the workbench with the T mould and those monitors look lovely!
Brilliant build

I grew up playing Lemings back in the early 90s, and that cabinet art would fit right in.
So glad somebody has finally done this. I remember playing the ROM on MAME many years ago, and always thinking what a shame it was that it never made it to production.
Oh? It’s already been dumped?
Thanks to Holly for a sneak peek when I visited this weekend. Will definitely plan a full day experience next!
Beautiful side artwork!!
superb stuff, Richard's work on that cabinet is incredible.

Wow, that makes me feel old - I had my A3000 just after I LEFT school. E-type and Lemmings on there were both great though.
That does look fantastic all put together! Well done to everyone involved.
I wanna see a let's play of the multiplayer mode, competitive games with trackballs sound like a recipe for chaos
You can do 2 player on the Amiga version with 2 mice. There might be a let's play of that...
Amazing work all round, and really looks like an original cabinet from the 90s
Fantastic job to all involved. I love how capable you all are. And attention to detail is so important you ace every project. Good job! Cant wait to see this cabinet for real.
Amazing craftsmenship! Congrats to the team bringing this arcade into reality.
Awesome! Congratulations to the whole team who made this possible
Wow. What amazing talents shown all the way around!
I have a cnc i cut cabinets with, but I gotta say that is one hell of a clever way to cut out a cab, good show you guys
Thanks Eric
Another wonderful project and video! Really amazing to see this come to life! 🤩
Thanks Andrew, glad you liked it, lots more planned!
That turned out amazing. Looks like something that belongs in an arcade.
Stunning result. Amazing work all round.
I love lemmings, never had Amiga's in my country but we played the famicom and sega version to death

Mark and his lemmings collection is something we all want to see...
Dear God guys, this is amazing 👏 Hats off to you all, phenomenal job!
Lemmings was one of my very favorite games. Great video.
That is fantastic work by all involved! Looks 100% like it belongs in a real arcade! Well done!
That is absolutely fantastic!! excellent work!
Wow looks awesome team. Well done!
That art work looks amazing and would have defo been something I would have played, brilliant stuff
Great to see you used plywood and not MDF!
Wow! Beautiful cabinet.

@@Ragnar8504 Oh yeah, chipboard would've worked if it was dense enough, but it could well be that the plywood is cheaper these days? Who knows.
Top work. Also, It's scary how much Richard reminds me of the naturalist Steve Backshall, both in appearance and voice.
Simply Amazing! Well done to all! Bravo!
What a superb piece of work!
Looks amazing. Great job everyone!
Very talented bunch you all are! Hats off to you
Today I was looking at my games and I found the lemmings game for my PSP I was playing it for a couple of hours and then I went to see some TH-cam videos and then your video is popping up that was so weird😂 really really really nice job guys keep it up🤘😎
Turned out amazing!
And as an arcade loving furry the green fur is just the cherry on top 😄
Fantastic work as always, the work you guys put in is phenomenal 👍👍👍.
Amazing job chaps, very professional looking cabinet
Not seen a video in a while hope you are keeping well, and things are on an upward trajectory for you and the cave.
No doubt something big brewing, all my best, Love Rob. 🙂
Hey Rob, I’ve had two months of parental leave to start a family, I’m back on Monday. Thanks for checking!
Stunning work. Love the effort the retro community put in to preserve entertainment history 👌
Great project, fantastic build! It's like recreating an extinct species from a DNA sample. I like the artwork around the monitor. I'm sure this cabinet would have been very popular.
Great analogy!
The prototype board literally is a DNA (Design) sample!
You guys just keep raising the bar. Well done.
Love seeing these things come together, excellent job all round

Oh, but awesome work, all concerned. Cracking job, it looks fantastic.
omg we NEED this!!!! a 1up would be cool of this game
I'll never forget buying that game the day it came out. Outstanding work making it a full arcade!
Absolute stunning work cabinet looks like it was factory made.
Well done boys, Well done indeed. Cheers!
Great work! 👍
This is WONDERFUL! 🕹️❤
Looks awesome, Great work guys.
great artwork

this is so darn cool, great job!
Night Slashers is one of the all time great beat 'em ups!
A true work of art.
You have a pretty amazing team guys.
Nicely done!
What have you done to Orville the Duck, you monsters?!
Looks fantastic!
Ha ha love the green hair on top of the arcade machine. Looks really good. Great job everyone. 👏
Beautiful!
Top job, great looking cabinet and content. Has motivated me to play it on Mame.
That was great! Thanks so much. Hope to make it over from the US one day and visit.
Lemmings never had an official arcade release, so RMC Retro decided:
"_
3d printed brackets to build an arcade, thats something i would buy :)
