[@alittlemestup]

Absolutely insane build! Love your channel.

[@pathoftheuknown9709]

Its very interesting of all the products your using to make this massive arcade cabinet , I love arcade machines it’s like the best nostalgia of my childhood 😎

[@ejtaylor73]

I can't wait to see the final product, this sounds amazing. I love these build series, just hate having to wait for the next episode 🤣Seeing that many parts sitting there, I would get so over whelmed and not know where to begin. Thank you Sir for sharing with us and look forward to going on this journey with you.

[@alexrobles7744]

Wow Daniel, you are truly the master. I can speak firsthand on the nightmare of putting all those things into one machine, The USB, the signals, it get crazy, so I really looking forward to part 2. As always thanks for showing us what is going into he build.

[@TheDanielSpies_Arcades]

Thanks Alex 🙌🏻

[@philh3041]

Stumbled across your channel watching old arcade resto videos! Absolutely amazing the work you do. Plus thanks for the heads up on Fusion 360! Will check that out. 👍🏻

[@SlickNickBA]

The back of that cab design looks familiar 1:33 :) Looking forward to watching the next two videos.

[@AllAboutTech159]

The idea to integrate a sit stand frame to an arcade is wicked. Really looking forward to seeing this one progress 👏

[@WickedGamerCollector]

Love your crazy builds buddy.. thanks for sharing ! Edit ... hey you have a new car 😮

[@wickeddutchgamer]

Lekker bezig ! Ik ben enorm benieuwd hoe de final result will be ! 😄

[@TheDanielSpies_Arcades]

You will visit the workshop when it is done I think ? 🍕 🍺 😜

[@flamtaps316]

WOW!!!! I just…. WOW!!!! It’s gonna be sick! Congrats! You outdid yourself again!!!

[@TheDarkPreacher]

I think there should be a vertical piece of wood at the back (behind the fans) that raises with the top which would act as a backdrop when the arcade is raised and can also hide any cables going up the the main cabinet? Or can those be routed through the legs? This build looks amazing. love the raised desk idea.

[@TheDanielSpies_Arcades]

Smart idea, let me see if this is possible 👍🏼

[@KiwiKoNZ]

Let’s go dude!! ✋🥳🤚

[@the1ucidone]

I can't wait to learn more! Teach me master.

[@hermannpreinfalk9300]

Daniel, I'm so glad you share your knowledge, experiences, parts etc. because I can't afford your arcade machines but I may build one myself in the future. Thumbs up!

[@couzin2000]

This is the best video so far - a listing of all the parts you need. Excellent! You ROCK Daniël!

[@ChristianCastle]

You always have the coolest ideas.

[@JJ2c]

AMAZING!!! Just like every one of your videos AMAZING!!!

[@TheDanielSpies_Arcades]

THANKS!! 😉

[@HomeArcadeInABox]

Amazing!! Next level as always!

[@azhighwayz2310]

Nice! I've been drawing up plans and collecting parts for an adjustable height pedestal build that can go from sitting to stand up with a larger sized monitor on an adjustable desk mount. A minimalist type arcade machine that doesn't take up too much room. Plus with the monitor desk mount you can twist the monitor 90 degrees for those vertical screen games and pinball. Can't wait to see how a pro implements the adjustable height.

[@andyhello23]

Amazing work, love seeing the new designs, you specially do with your clients Your customers should be very happy, the service you provide them is top quality, and you deserve what they get to pay you. Cheers again for sharing these builds, will look forward to the rest The work you put into these designs and machines is top notch, and your clients must be very happy.

[@zS39SBT4fe5Zp8Q]

Nice! Looking forward to the rest of this build!!

[@fulmetalraven1]

[@toniizzo8307]

Wow das wird alles übertreffen. Richtige Inspiration für alle Arcade Liebhaber

[@experiment18a40]

[@Piglet6256]

holy sh#t, this arcade cabinet is totally out of control haha. I am getting excited here, can't wait to see the whole series! So far it's looking amazing! groetjes

[@BlackBartGames]

Amazing Daniel and your storytelling/videos are another level now ! Very nice and edited ! Congratulations from Japan !

[@TheDanielSpies_Arcades]

Thanks!! 🙏🏼

[@MrWhitekg]

Wow... super intéressant !!! Merci

[@tekkamanblade2244]

It would be cool if Ultimarc offered bat tops made from the same material as the RGB ball-tops so we can swap and still enjoy RGB joysticks

[@TheDanielSpies_Arcades]

Yes, that would be great indeed!

[@chriscmb]

You are like an arcade Cabinet Artist. I love your videos and I love your deigns and ideas. I am in the middle of breaking down my arcade to turn it into an enternainment center so it can go with me no matter the size of the house or apt. I'm in. The idea of making it sit down will be awesome escpecially for kids and adults to able to play at the same hight. I cant wait to see the next video to see how you put everything together. and I would love to get those gun4ir but for almost $500 a gun, I'm going to have to ask that for chritsmat lol.

[@jmjmusser]

on your glass panels do you use dark smoke, or light gray smoke?

[@TheDanielSpies_Arcades]

There is only one choice from my glass supplier. Smoke Grey...you should test what would work best for you

[@probowlergaming3405]

I don’t think I caught it but what type of monitor was he using and is there a specific one for arcade builds?

[@TheDanielSpies_Arcades]

It was a Asus Predator Rog Strix monitor 144hrtz 43 inch

[@TheRealJPhillips]

Damn! 🔥 U da mann

[@KiwiKoNZ]

Hey Dan! Would you build one and send it to New Zealand? (Just for future reference 😏)

[@TheDanielSpies_Arcades]

Sure! I have no customers in New Zealand yet 😃

[@KiwiKoNZ]

@@TheDanielSpies_Arcades Sweet! SUBBED 😎👍✨

[@jmjmusser]

This thing is massive, out of curiosity, how much are you charging for this? BTW, thank you for your fusion 360 tutorial. It got me started on learning 360 and I have since built on that. It was very helpful. I really appreciate it!

[@TheDanielSpies_Arcades]

Thanks, as for pricing - about a middle class car :-)

[@donjaun540]

Amazing 🥰 I may not get an answer, but how much would a dream like this cost❓

[@TheDanielSpies_Arcades]

Well, you can go as cheap or as crazy expensive as you would like. This one is leaning to that crazy side 😅

[@saulramirez4639]

Hi, where did you get the convex goldleaf button?, I can't find it on the ultimarc website

[@TheDanielSpies_Arcades]

Not yet on their website. You can send Andy an email maybe

[@JJiG]

please have detailed videos of the wiring. i know it'll be a nightmare, but it'll help so many going forward.

[@TheDanielSpies_Arcades]

Will try 😅

[@JJiG]

@@TheDanielSpies_Arcades wow it's been a month and no part 2. hope all is well!

[@pikaninjatcg8175]

Question: I want to build a 6-Player arcade cabinet. Is this a bad idea? I want to be able to play games like super smash bros and minecraft dungeons arcade with multiple players at the same time. Is this feasible, or I should just stick with a 4-Player cabinet? Thanks

[@TheDanielSpies_Arcades]

Sounds like a g r e a t idea! I see no reason not to (try) this :-)

[@international806yachting]

50“ monitor?? Isn‘t this like going to the movies and sitting in the first row?

[@salttrader4113]

Nah, I have a 50 inch as well, it's perfect on a 4 player cab!

[@ChristianCastle]

Yeah, I'd prefer a dual-screen arcade with two 20" monitors, one next to the other forming an L. 2 players for each monitor.

[@simaosantos8539]

So, Cristiano Ronaldo has ordered an arcade machine, right? No one else on Madeira island would buy such a refined gaming behemoth...

[@TheDanielSpies_Arcades]

Can't confirm :-)

[@atariforever2002]

While I can appreciate the effort you have put into this thing, to me it's just a colossal waste of time and money. 1. most classic "arcade" games weren't designed for a 50 inch LCD monitor, they will look like garbage on that screen. 2. Who wants to set on a stool (or stand perhaps) 18 inches from that large of a screen playing modern console games for hours on end? Console games are designed to be played from a couch or a recliner on a TV down low several meters away. The ergonomics of that thing is just stupid. 3. Putting 50,000 games or whatever on it is also ridiculous. You're going to spend more time searching for what you want to play then actually playing anything. But hey, makes for a good KZbin I guess. 🤷‍♂️🙄

[@lightgungamerru1963]

1)Mame games will look fine if you set normal bezels and turn on reshade. It will turn out to be just 26-28 inches. Modern Arcade Games(teknoparrot) they just require a large screen. 2) Console games in an arcade machine are just a bonus, you can take a gamepad and play at any distance, but no one will stop you. 3) It's actually very convenient to have everything in one, even if you won't run it all)

[@TheDanielSpies_Arcades]

Did you like the video? Then the mission succeeded 🙌🏻
