For real? I think it's a great idea... Sometimes there's nothing better than slamming beer and playing throwback games, imo. Definitely not worth $3500 though.  :lol I could just buy a couple sticks and a 30 rack and play anything on my current computer, probably more comfortably than this.

ahahaha, look at that button placement.  I'd put money on it that they're shitty cheap parts too.  Bat-top, probably octagonal gate, probably not easy to replace parts.  Seems like the kind of thing you'd see in SkyMall.  this thing is for suckers.

I have a beer fridge in my garage which works perfectly. Having one in an arcade cabinet is just asking for some sort of electrical malfunction that will kill a drunk dude.
