    Bought one of these for my son for Crimbo. Pretty impressive, might even get one myself.

    Created a costing list in Excel and its around €200 and my school has now decided they are introducing an after school club to make a retro arcade machine, with me leading the classes.

    The kids are really keen and motivated by it. I'll keep posting pics of their progress.

    sort it out then!

    Only just noticed you had this great project, love to see the progress.

    I instinctively wanted to ask you for the plans for the build, but I know I'll never do it anyway. Still looking at some old cabs on the online markets here and seeing if i can buy a cab in decent condition and fit it out.

    Thanks to {{909}}
