Project Arcade: Build Your Own Arcade Machine
This is the first book to walk people through the construction of a complete video arcade cabinet - just like the ones we dropped quarter after quarter into in the 1980s, making it a must-have for hobbyists who love classic video games and want to create their own machines! Arcade-game expert John St. Clair guides readers through several projects, with a focus on building a complete arcade cabinet using a PC, custom controllers, and special emulation software. Readers begin by building classic arcade-style joysticks, buttons, and trackballs, and gradually build their own full-size arcade cabinet using the plans on the CD-ROM or by designing their own.
