The Project

This is our transition year, year project! Our brief for the project was basically anything! We could do this individually or as a group.

 

At first a group of us planned to build a Retro Arcade MAME Machine and sell it on E-Bay but had no start up capital. Then Davin's parents stepped in! It was an interest of theirs to have an Arcade Cabinet so they funded the project for us with the condition they get to keep the Arcade Cabinet when finished.

 

We went back to school with the idea and were told that one Arcade Cabinet would not be enough work for a group project! Once again Davin's family came to the rescue! His uncle stepped in and gave us funds to build a second Arcade Cabinet! Our group eventually became two and this is what we built:

 

 

The Web Site

This web site is also part of our project, just to make sure we have done enough work to get a good grade in our year project assessment.

 

It will take you through the process of building your own Arcade Cabinet. Enjoy the rest as there are many hours of gaming ahead!
