Nicely done, though the t-edging is a bit much for my tastes.

i think he's going for an arcade cabinet feel with the lit marquee and t-molding.

Comrade, do you know the source of these images? I have never seen any catalogs/brochures that NEC sent directly to retailers...this is the sort of thing one would find in retailer brochures...

DAMN.

I just typed Turbo Grafx 16 Kiosk on Google Image and it was listed on someone's photobucket.

If you find a scanned retailer catalog, please HOLLA!

That is exactly it. I have it in the same room as my arcade cabs so I wanted something to pull the arcade cabs over to the home systems in the same room.

Freakin' sweet man! That thing looks kick ass! Yea I bulit my own marque for a MAME cabinet a friend and I built a few summers back... way cheaper and much cooler to say you made it yourself. Get yourself a cheap 12v LED strip to use as the light source as those are super easy to tap an in-line switch with... Tell ya what, PM me and I may have a piece of a strip leftover from my built that ill toss you

Nice work!  I like the lighting!  Never have to hunt for games in the dark!  Makes me want to build one like it.

I like it. Can you take a pic of the lights off in the room and the shelf lit?  I want to see what it looks like in the dark.
