- I wanted an upright cabinet
- and my spare computer can run an emulator to play any old arcade game.
I assumed that the computer would be most of the total cost, and I already had one, so the whole project could be finished on the cheap. We'll see how wrong this is in future posts. (One thing that makes it wrong is that computers are stinky cheap now).
I didn't know if I would buy a new arcade cabinet shell, a used old game, or build one from scratch.
By the way, until my posts catch up with my progress, they'll be written in the past tense.
