An In-Depth Look At Some Options

For this fortnight’s blog I thought we would take a look at some of our most popular options. Since starting Bespoke Arcades, we have got quite adept at fulfilling our customers’ needs in terms of special requests. One of our most popular requests is button illumination. We used to advise against them due to eventual failure (and you don’t want a broken light in your panel).

Now all our buttons are easy to replace if they ever die as technology has moved on leaps and bounds. There are many variants of buttons to choose- from a single colour to full RGB mixing (any colour). All buttons have an even glow with no “hot-spots” as you can see from the photos.

We also offer simple lighting or a new cutting-edge interface board which can perform any kind of effect desired. This can all be tweaked and programmed via the user friendly application.

This fantastic feature is also available for trackballs on the Evo. There’s nothing quite like seeing your friends be fascinated by the light show.

We now offer powder coating as part of our standard repertoire. An imprecise art at best but we guarantee no unsightly defects. This feature is usually for the coin door or usb ports and care is taken to dismantle all parts prior to spraying. We even illuminate the coin door with your desired colour.

To go with your new coin door, some people opt for custom tokens. Send us an idea and within 2 months we can have your own unique coins to use in your own home arcade machine.

Another popular feature is choosing the wood finish for your arcade machine. Your home arcade cabinet can seamlessly tie in with your décor. As you can see from the photos- we try to keep a continuous grain throughout the cabinet.

Or one can go for the more visual route and opt for your own unique design to adorn the side of your arcade machine. We use only the best vinyl used on commercial arcade machines. The vinyl graphic is then computer cut to ensure a flawless graphic. We work hand in hand with our clients to faithfully reproduce their particular vision.

If you have an idea for your own machine (like Mr Skills), then why not send us a mail or give us a bell on 0207 935-9005. We would be glad to assist.

Happy Gaming!!
