I like my cabinet i just wish arcade 1up would've used a 20 inch monitor instead of 17inch. I think arcade 1up should use 20 inch monitors on all there cocktail tables and all 4 player cabinets! I know that you and glen have friends over at arcade 1up .......maybe you can suggest it to them 👍😁
@cooltoy 4 жыл бұрын
the problem with that is no one is currently making 20" 4:3 aspect ratio monitors on a large scale, so there isn't anyone Arcade1Up could source those monitors from at the moment. They would need to find someone to make those specifically for them which would be a big investment. But I do agree with you, I'd love to see 20" screens used on all Arcade1Up machines moving forward.

Do you think it's possible to take the PCB from the cocktail cabinet and swap it into the regular SF2CE Arcade 1-up cabinet?

Could you try it out and see if it works? Thanks =)

Fresh Muffins you would need to have one of the newer monitors installed in the street fighter cabinet to do that. The newer PCBs use different cable connections between the monitors and the encoder boards than what the wave 1 street fighter cabinet came with, so it wouldn’t be as easy as just switching out the boards

CoolToy, would Sanwa 30 mm snap in buttons work with this? I don’t want to do all the work you did, I just want to switch the buttons out with better ones. Do you just switch the wires to the new buttons? I’m new to this and I’ve been trying to find info online but I can’t find it. I have no idea about encoder boards and just want it to be as easy as possible. Appreciate it.
@cooltoy 4 жыл бұрын
Unfortunately Sanwa 30mm buttons won't work unless you drill out the existing holes and make them wider. Almost all USB encoder boards come with a set of connecting wires, all you need to do it connect one end to the microswitch on each button and then plug the other end into the encoder board.

I don't know if anyone brought this up, but how about venting so the PC doesn't overheat. I know the other PCBs don't need a vent, because it's very low heat. But a PC would accumulate a lot of heat. Did you ever think of raising the table from the base to create some exhaust?
