    Maybe I'm being harsh, the comments on the reddit are very complementary. Just looks like a well crafted mess of an unusable table to me.

    To be fair, it might be neat for a child's room

    To be unfair, it's listed as "arcade" :p

    In fairness, it will probably work grand, depending on the hardware driving it...
    I mean, it's an official control panel and a day-cent display...
    If they could throw some panels around it, to hide it's feet of clay, it mightn't be too bad!

    It's like the av trolley from our school. Only ours had a VHS with a safety video or something rather than that. Think we'd have preferred that being wheeled in.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    Isn't that in danger of toppling over with over excited button mashing? Doesn't look very wide to me, more like a bookshelf width.

    That's really bad, where do you start? You'd break your wrists trying to use that steering wheel.

    Going by the height of the wheel compared to the sticks, I dont think you're meant to use your hands :D

    So, you sit on an arcade stool and use your feet?

    You don't mean a frank'n beans control set-up, surely?

    First person to say otherwise gets 100,000 down votes and chased out with pitchforks.

    They really are a strange bunch over there!
