Arcade Stick Custom Art Install! (Mayflash F500 Elite)

Рет қаралды 66,495

Күн бұрын

It was harder than I thought to make custom artwork for an arcade stick, especially when game taste is wide. Instead of being confined to a single game, or encumbered by a bloated collage; working with unique subject matter really made the process alot easier.
Arcade stick featured in the video is a MAYFLASH F500 Elite

@@AshTheBananaLad F300 is indeed cool, my friend has one. Very good for the money. The only downside is that you don't get Sanwa parts, and you don't have the plexi glass top for easy art installation. Though, you can always upgrade to Sanwa parts later, and you can have your custom art printed on a piece of sticker vinyl to attach to the top plate instead.👍

Or simply put your new artwork on top of the existing one already in there. Print shops are generally quite cheap for a single print however, only a couple dollars or so.

I use the stick on my 360, PS3, PS4, switch, PC, and Mister FPGA device.

But the plexiglass is held in place by the buttons, so you need to remove the backplate and buttons etc...

I don't get it. Why use the scissors when you have an x-acto knife?

@novo1858 3 жыл бұрын

Well, sharp good scissors actually make a cleaner cut because there are blades cutting from both sides. Surgical knife blade cuts are sometimes ugly on the back side. Also I'm just good with scissors lol, anything will work.

@@javierortiz82 Hey your Welcome! I designed the artwork specifically around the grey buttons, trust me it looks really good with the artwork in. And its also pretty unique to have grey buttons. But at the same time I know what you mean, to me the classic arcade colour layout is the "SEGA Green and Pink" from their Candy cabs. I'd recommened going with something maybe subdued if you can find it. Light blue or pink to matcht he art? Or just do whatever the hell you want lol.

Hey, long shot here but is there a way I can pay you to cut this out for me? I'll even pay for shipping. I don't have the tools to do this but I really really want this lmao

@novo1858 3 жыл бұрын

Hey there, I could possibly do this. To make it worth my time I would charge $50 USD to get it printed, cut it out, and cover me for the time it takes to figure out shipping etc.. But then I'm not sure how much it would cost to ship, as I would have to send it in a tube. It could be as much as $30 for shipping, I'm not sure. Does that still interest you?

Hey man, it's actually very simple and straight forward. Just make sure you take a picture of it as soon as the bottom panel is off so you have a reference for how everything will go back together. Just watch the video a couple times, and maybe a video or two on how arcade sticks are wired. You can do it!!!

@@jhx97 Hey no problem. This video seems like a pretty good explanation kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h5eipbN4lsfed6c.html. Each button has a positive and negative wire, and the board the wires are connected to is labeled with the corresponding button assignment. As long as you take a picture of it before you start taking it apart, I am very confident anyone could put it back to together. These devices are also meant to be taken apart and modified, so don't worry too much about breaking it. Just take your time.

Hmmm no not at all dude. Those are some really nice art Fiskars scissors that I sharpened before cutting. It's more accurate to cut straight lines with a pair of good scissors than a blade alone.
