Girlfriend wanted a coffee table.

what crt model?

M8 don't think you can escape it, I saw that you posted this picture the wrong way around.

You can't hide it from me, I know you're an alien and you live without gravity.

That looks stupidly inconvenient.

>i used to have a girlfriend
Agree it looks stupidly inconvenient. Even a lot of old cocktail cabs manage to fit most of the controls under the glass. You could have just copied one of those and had something that actually functions as a table.
To function as a coffee table it needs to be lower, which would put those controls on the ground. You need controls even with the top at the lowest. These should slide or fold out so the table can be used as a table.
4/10. 1 point for effort. 1 point for now having an arcade cab. 2 putting it in the middle of the room and scaring the GF away. She was probably a psycho bitch who was no good for you anyway.

should have bought a real coffee table and a retron5.

cocktail cabs are a shitty meme

This, if it were me I'd have put a pc in the box and used external controllers/external TV.

Confirmed too young to get into a bar in the 80's.

protip: your gf hates your gaming hobby and as soon as she's pregnant she's going to force you to sell all your toys and support her

This reads like a stolen reddit post

There's a lot of overlap between this board and the retrogaming sub on reddit.

that poor abandoned trackball on the far right

This really is a weird design though, super narrow panel, ugly marble paper that clashes with the rest of the box, and also the speaker/bezel combine to look like a funny face.

But hey, he did it and it's his so I'm not the person to tell him he's wrong. Just curious choices here IMO.
