Description

Custom built Nintendo Switch Arcade Cabinet

FUNCTIONALITY

  • IMPORTANT NOTE: Nintendo doesn't let custom/3rd party controllers wake their consoles, so you will still need to either wake the console then insert it OR use a Nintendo controller to wake the cabinet
  • Red button not functional - wanted to make a powered way to eject the switch but never got round to it.
  • Black buttons are home buttons for both switch controllers
  • 2x sets of face buttons and fight sticks
  • Remove the joycons before inserting the switch

BUILD & COMPONENTS

  • IMPORTANT NOTE: Does not come with a Nintendo Switch
  • Compatible with original/OLED Switch, not likely compatible with Switch 2 without cutting a bigger hole in dash and replacing the dock/resizing other parts
  • Side walls are made from kitchen cabinet laminate wood
  • MDF interior frame
  • Quite heavy, strong but external areas could be chipped
  • Front dash is made from single sheet of acrylic
  • Speaker area made from guitar amp mellotone cloth
  • Has a Switch 1 dock mounted within it, insert switch through cassette slot in front to awaken unit.
  • Uses 2 Brookes fighting boards to run controllers
  • Has a logitech sub and 2x speakers inside, with volume control underneath button area
  • AOC monitor inside
  • Has additional HDMI & Audio ports - could be used to add a MAME etc for more game support
  • Has multi-plug inside, plugs into wall power through single cable out bottom/rear
  • Components can be removed/replaced if needed, nothing is permanently fixed
  • Is built for a relatively tall person, but can easily use a stool in front of it

CONDITION

  • Works
  • Some minor chips on wood edges around controller area

Has a very premium look and feel, I designed and built it from the ground up, more a cool piece of furniture to keep and use than just a standard arcade cabinet.

Was quite expensive to build, so I'd like to get a decent amount for it or I'd sooner just hold onto it.

Can provide any further info as needed
