Once...Twice...Three Times a Gunblade

15-04-2013 7:00pm#1So, I set about reassembling this thing today, & rearranging the shed & other cabs to make space for it. Quite a task, I'm bloody wrecked! Anyway, let the filth commence...
Here's the shed they all live in, keeps them dry anyway!
Shed was fairly full, all the garden furniture etc lives in there over the winter. Gunblade sits in pieces, all the cowlings off & the gun panel off too. Time to get cracking
Gun panel mounted, that alone weighs a ton!
Speaker pods fitted, the gun speakers are located in these
Covers fitted onto the legs
Time for a test before continuing reassembly
Cowlings all back on, nearly there!

Yeah it originally had five buttons per player, but I changed that to six because there's a Mame pc running in it through a Jpac
That Tekken 3 cab cost me €100 a few years ago, its big enough to actually get into it! 0 -

Excellent setup dude and great pics!! Holy feck Gunblade is gigantic! That Tekken cab is a beast but it looks small in comparison.
Big ole grin on my face looking at that setup. Yourself and the young lad will have great crack with it. :cool:Dear lord, that is just incredible. INCREDIBLE!
Looks like a proper arcade in there man!!!
That shed must be monstrous as the cab is very snug.
Have you had a blast of it yet? Or are your arms still in bits??? :pac:
Cheers folks I havn't played it yet, only powered it up to make sure it survived the journey & did a few service mode tests etc. I'm too tired now to play it...six feckin' hours I'm out there

maintenance is just something you have to accept with cabs...it comes with the turf
Especially with a cab like that! You have a hell of a lot of things working at once there.
I'm always amazed when machines this big survive. I'd be really surprised if there was another one of these left in the country.
There are a few vids and pics online of this one with a 25 inch CRT. I'd be really interested in knowing how widespread the 50 inch is these days

Lol, €6k? Imagine the shipping cost!
I seen the marquee actually, but I actually don't think I have the height clearance to have it on so I'm happy enough to leave it 0 -

Any idea where the game hardware sits?
Yep it all lives in the gun section. The gun section connects to the screen by way of four BNC connectors {RGB & Sync} & a power cable connector. Thats prob why the gun section weighs a ton! No keys to access it though, will have to drill the locks & replace them eventually so I couldn't get a nice pic of the game boards themselves

Only noticed this in the ad:
"Includes a brand-new 47" LCD Flatscreen Monitor!"
Pretenders! But it is worth noting that should the projection system fail in my one at some stage & is too costly to fix...I could mount an lcd/plasma in it as the guns are kinds like mice & not actual light guns 0 -

Oh yeah! didn't think of that Make sure to put an scanline generator thingy somewhere in the video chain if you ever do. 50 inch scanlines - phwoar!! 0 -

I'd really hate to have to go down that road, but at least its a possibility if a repair is not possible/too expensive. I had a peek inside of the monitor housing...good god I hope I never have to deal with it repair wise, there's stuff everywhere in it!0 -
Is there any screen burn? You always seem to get it with those big rear projection screens unfortunately
Although I wonder would it just be possible to replace the screen part if that happened? Can't say I know very much about them at all.0 -

None that I noticed, I'll have a more in depth look at it today & see how it looks. As for replacing screen parts for burn in...no idea how that works on projection systems at all. I'd guess any burn in is 'burned' into a lens or something rather then the screen/plastic/canvas?0
