Nintendo Arcade Cabinet

Here is a short video about my NES arcade cabinet that was sold, I believe, at Toys R Us in the 80's or early 90's.

I forgot to mention this in the video. The machine is around the same size as a old arcade machine ie Pac-Man or Galaga.

I considered painting my cab white but thought that it wouldn't look good over time. What are your thoughts on this?

@BaldarkParadul I think mine looks decent white with red trim. It kinda reminds me of a Famicom. I have though about doing a collage of NES characters on both sides. I think that would look pretty ballin.

Its called a Pro-Play Home Arcade and was sold only through Toys-R-Us for a limited time. They also made a Sega version of it, but I have never actually seen one in person.

I have one of these myself, but it far worse condition. I'm missing the front panel and the plexiglass screen plus all of the stickers(which you are missing aswell).

@pceslayer

Thanks for the info! I didnt know it had stickers or a plexiglass screen protector. Do you have pics of one in perfect condition?

@jacksonutton

It is removeable. That is just the Tecmo Superbowl handguard where you cant see what plays are being picked out of the corner of your eye.

Used to own one of these. Sold it years ago and wish I still had it now.

I don't know if you got any negative comments, but I just have to say, great video!

I didn't even know those cabinets existed. I guess you really DO learn something new everyday. LOL Great idea on the cheat guard as well.

Thanks for sharing this video!

@rozzy523 afaik they never released a pro-play for snes or genesis. The company Eclectic Products went belly up.
