@Graboid beautiful. I love the whole theme. The only thing i would do different is the second players buttons. They seem very out of place for a retro barcade. But thats just me if i was doing it. But since it aint mine just ignore me. :)

@twidget I got it here full set as shown :)

Graboid

@edmaul69 Cheers, no worries all have different tastes. Understand what you mean though

Very nicely done!

@Graboid dont get me wrong. I absolutely love it because you themed it to a true classic and it came out great and i would be proud of owning a bartop like this. Probably more than other i have seen because im all about the old school. That was just my personal thought on the blue buttons and i hope you took no offense to it. Was not my intention. Take care my friend.

@Graboid I see the set, I am talking about the control scheme sheet on the left of the main screen. I do not see that available. Do you have a pic of it to get ideas form or a location you purchased it?

Graboid

@twidget Ah sorry, yes I know what you mean. The 'Control Scheme' instructions. I made this in photoshop. Here's a copy

@Graboid the control scheme look really good and is a great idea can I ask where you had this printed?
Many thanksl

Morph-X

Wow! I commend you on a very professional and esthetically very well thought out build. I'm sure this will give you tons of fun. Awesome!

Graboid

@Robster1727 I printed this at home on photo paper using a regular inkjet paper

The magnets holding the control board was a great idea! Nice work!
