I made a PINK arcade cabinet! Best Dad ever? Yup.

Nice, I read this thread a few hours before it went up on Kotaku but I saw it there this morning. Congrats man!

In other thread-hijacking, but somewhat on-topic news, this, SF4 and a few other posts/auctions I've seen recently have inspired me to build up a console/MAME cab (mainly for SF4 and Third Strike, but other fighters as well). I've built furniture and stuff before, but I've got the anti-Midas touch with electronics/soldering so this should be a fun undertaking. I'm thinking of going with an aesthetic that's something of a combination of a Dynamo case and the Viewlix case, although I don't know if I'll get a monitor big enough to justify that design.

I may hit you up for pointers. Like what accent colors to use with pink.
 
I have ZERO electronics skills. The first thing I ever wired was an arcade cab (it's actually kind of easy). Also, I've built a bunch of cabs now and I have never soldered anything in my life. I'm happy to answer any questions you might have.
