      Hey guys I just wanted to post this because I really don't have any ideas for a name for my arcade cabinet.

      I have a Pi 4 model, a 3A-C USB power supply, I am using dragonrise usb joysticks and I have retropie 3/4 version. My cabinet is black and I did my own drawing and painting of centipede, mario, luigi, PACMAN and the ghosts, Dig Dug, galaga, bosconian, rally x, megaman, Link from Legend of Zelda, DOnkey kong, Ms. Pacman and more.

      I would really appreciate some name ideas.

      Thanks,
      RetroEddie

        I have two names. The first is RetroEd and the second is DeLorean, from the movie Back To The Future.

        My English isn't at a good level.

            With his arcade colouring, surely Black to the Future is more appropriate.

            How about a leaf from Warehouse 13, where the most dangerous artefacts are housed, your arcade could be where the biggest games of the past are housed - The Dark Vault

                No worries, I am in process of building my first Bar-top, did it all from scrap bits of wood, it too is black, but with a yellow control panel. So am calling it Off-Cut Arcade.

                  @retroeddie Can you show us some pictures of the cab?

                  For a (mostly) black cabinet, C.A.B.B. came to my mind, in reference to K.I.T.T. from Knight Rider. 😎

                  I didn't think up any meaning for this acronym, however. You'd have to come up with one on your own. 😉

                    Keep in mind I drew and painted these characters.
