Great video! Very inspiring for a simple DIY project. I really liked the video because you made everything easy to understand and it is step-by-step. What is great is that you did it as a 2 step process. After creating the base, if you want to continue to create the arcade box, go ahead. If not, you still play games using the joystick controls. So, I saw the comment below about having a complete equipped workshop. It would be nice to have everything but the whole project can be done with: * Drill with the correct bits and blades. - For all holes * Circular Saw - For the Main panel * Mitre Box and Hand Saw - Inside joints and supports * Jig Saw (Nice to have) - For the back. BTW, love the comments coming from the cat!

As someone who has built a lot of arcade cabinets and control panels...if you want an ultra permium finish use black matte finish kitchen grade laminate. ITs a bit pricey for a 4'x8' sheet but it lasts for a lot of projects. It will make your top scratch and spill proof and it looks sick.

One other thing that is handy for an arcade stick thing is using a drawer box replacement. Edit: for loading the roms there is 2 methods which one is using a USB drive and the other is SSH which you can use your network or WinSCP which you can just drag and drop and the process and time is pretty much about the same and another thing is for having the roms appear you don't need to do a full restart on the system you could always just restart emulationstation and everything will be loaded up and goes a lot quicker.

6:38 You cannot use a joystick for this first go.. The mapper tries to map all buttons at once(will not let you skip). If you are using a joystick that does not have Start, Select, r1,r2,r3 L1,L2,L3, 2x analog pads, 1 digital d-pad, and 4 buttons, you will get stuck without a simple way to bypass. Use the keyboard and map out "up, down, left right on dpad, a, b, x, y, start and select" on the keyboard. Make sure to remember what you selected as the menu is going to need you to use them to navigate. You can just use all random letters to finish up the remaining buttons. After you map the keyboard. All new controller mappings should allow you to skip buttons that you don't already have (sega, nes, snes, n64 type controllers). Also If you do have a select button or a home button.. Make sure to use that as your (action button). This allows you to close out of games and go back to main menu by holding Start + Action button(Select or Home) at the same time.

Hey there, try powering it up with the keyboard AND controls plugged in. If you're able to navigate with the keyboard, go to the menu option to configure the controls and hold down a button from the arcade buttons and see if it detects it there. If not, check and see if all the wires are connected properly and firmly and try it again. If all that fails you might have a faulty set of controls.
