Retro Arcade Sign With Light Bulbs
I bought one of those arcade signs from Hobby Lobby a long time ago but just finally got around to mod it. The arcade sign comes with fake printed-on light bulbs and it’s made of tin. I wanted to add real light bulbs to it, but finding a set of cheap light bulbs was hard….
Second Monitor Game Info Using Hyperspin, EDS and Slideshowpro

My Custom “Featured” Game Art For Use With Hyperspin’s Special Art Feature

USB Optical Rotary Joystick Made From A Zippy Joystick And A USB Mouse

My arcade cabinet (pedestal design) already has too many joysticks, so adding an authentic rotary joystick was not an option. I usually play games that require a regular ball top (such as street fighter), therefore, I needed a joystick…
Final Star Force Hyperspin Theme
I made a Hyperspin theme for the arcade game “Final Star Force”. It shows both fighters (the Blue-Nova and the Red-Nova) with shooting lasers and thrusters. The animation of the lasers and propulsion device were done in Flash and exported as swf’s. I also added a moving star field using the hypertheme particle system. Enjoy.

Arcade controls for Mame and Hyperlaunch instruction cards
I designed a top mounted box with eight buttons to control MAME and Hyperlaunch instruction cards. It also includes a master volume control knob that uses a separate USB interface to control the volume. I used a AfterGlow xbox 360 Wired controller (I found at Microcenter for $25) to connect the buttons. I probably would…
