Nearly finished with a PC modded Space Invaders arcade cabinet. All lighting (marquee, coin mech, and trackball) is powered by the PC power supply. Soldered a cat5e cable to the PC power button for startup/shutdown of the cabinet. Designed custom layout and art for the control panel. Using an IPAC-2 board to interface buttons and joysticks to the PC through PS2 input.

  • Thanks. Restoration of the side art is rather difficult which is why I am procrastinating on it. The best method is to do a silk screen ...

  • @hagiadzo To answer my own question: I just finished modding a Space Invaders Deluxe cabinet. I installed a shelf by bolting down a board using the same mounting holes as the monitor. Then I placed an upright, flat-panel monitor on the new shelf. It worked out great!

  • Nice work on the mod, especially the way you added joysticks to the existing control panel. If you weren't focused on keeping the setup as close to the original as possible, how hard would it be to rig up the monitor to display straight on without a mirror?

  • nice work on the control panel. you were able to get a lot of controls in a small space

  • agree need to be rid of dell bios

  • Looks good, my only gripe is the screen looks like it's a mile away and the dell bios screen. I wonder if there is a way to make that blank.. Other then that fantastic job...

  • Looks fantastic; l am very jealous!

  • Good job! Should try to restore the cabinet art though!
