bulge2 Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 just posted this on xbox scene, thought it really deserves to be posted here. The single best way to enjoy an xbox ok heres my 2 xbox cabs that i have converted from a xmen capcom cabinet and a golden tee cabinet. They are both running on XBMC with a modified Slate skin. i have taken out all bits like pictures/movies and changed bits for a easy front end. i used a xbox to jamma converter which i purchased off ebay. CAPCOM CAB GOLDEN TEE MAME CAB (lots more work - custom CP - vinyl overlay etc) HOW it was CONTROL PANEL DESIGN PHASE CONSTRUCTION PHASE WIRING AND TESTING PHASE GETTING THE ARTWORK ON THERE FINISHED PROJECT cant wait for new version of Arcades BP.

Inky Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 thats freakin sweet. I really like the second one. what front end are you using on that one? I would love to turn my old xbox into a dedicated SFIII, MvC2, CvS2 & cps2/neogeo arcade cab.... maybe someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulge2 Posted December 3, 2007 Author Share Posted December 3, 2007 (edited) its just XBMC with a modified Slate skin. i basically just edited the XML files for the skin and moved stuff about changed the font, got rid off some stuff till i liked it. all of the emulators/games on there have custom/modified wide icons that XBMC does so well. i am currently building another one identical to the second one - which may find itself on ebay soon. with no roms i must add Edited December 3, 2007 by bulge2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't it be illegal, if you would sell a modded Xbox with roms and emus on it?But looks really great dude!

Alpha Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 That is one beautiful arcade cabinet! You can probably sell it for over $1,000 on eBay. How much did it cost to make with all the parts and tools? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulge2 Posted December 4, 2007 Author Share Posted December 4, 2007 That is one beautiful arcade cabinet! You can probably sell it for over $1,000 on eBay. How much did it cost to make with all the parts and tools? well i did a break down but i cant find it but it cost me about £350 so $700 ish to build, but i couldnt even quantify the amount of man hours tha have gone into this - design and build of the cab - the front end and getting everything on the box working spot on. i had to reconfigure everything for the emus and games etc etc etc. but id do it over and over as its a great hobby and the end result is great to use everyday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
