Are there any kits where I can just purchase panels and then purchase monitor, etc?


Maybe on ebay where you can get something custom built, probably won't be anywhere close to Arcade1Up's prices. Mass producing really drives down the cost.

Edt: You don't like the TMNT ones? I think they look fine. I'm looking for one on sale. Will disassemble in garage and spray a clear coat over panels with my cup gun.


It's too small for 4 player, it's a really nice looking cab, but it's not a good fit for 4 players. Better off making it a 2 player cab when you redo the cheap joysticks and buttons. I have a huge control board, it still gets tight when 4 adults start playing on it.

I couldn't find 4ppl to play if I tried.

All IRL ppl I know stopped playing video games nearly 20yrs ago, and I'm 33.

It would just be me modding it and maybe the GF playing, once.

I don't mind paying, I will gut the system anyway. After seeing the TMNT panels, I just want one. TMNTs and that cabinet was like most, my favorite.
