Had the pleasure to be the first visitor to play on this yesterday! Thanks Holly for being a great host, really enjoyed our chats.

[fragile]

Richard really is a bit of a genius at this niche.

[anumeon]

totally blown away at how stunning the finished cabinet is... A true work of art... Just wow...

[MarkTheMorose]

A literal workbench in Amiga Workbench 1.3 colours. Makes an old Amigan very happy.

[Dazreil]

That’s a beautiful looking cabinet, great work guys. I love that you’re using modern tech to build retro tech.

[cellarboy]

What’s crazy is that I’ve wanted to build a cab for years. Totally convinced myself I’d need to CNC the panels but wondered if you couldn’t 3D print a jig and use a router to cut out the shape. I figured if no one has done it before, then it couldn’t be possible. Yet here I am looking at someone doing exactly what I’d imagined and it is beautiful!!! Might have a resurrect my plans!!!

[douglasfazzani]

I love that arty picture of you all that's in the background. It's so lovely to see that your search for a new studio brought you instead a whole bunch of friends

[TheGunnarRoxen]

Brilliant, it looks amazing. Amazing work, folks! Also love that you called Mark a Lemmings Fan 🤣🤣🤣

[zeroryn]

Awesome, I was able to watch Richard make this. His 3D printed jig is pure genius🎉

[whetphish]

So glad somebody has finally done this. I remember playing the ROM on MAME many years ago, and always thinking what a shame it was that it never made it to production.

[Jawlf]

Amazing job, looks totally professional and a proper fit for an arcade. Well done to you all.

[Zahuizima]

I have an obsession with unreleased videogame related stuff seeing this brings me a lot of Joy ❤

[onepunchrob]

That does look fantastic all put together! Well done to everyone involved.

[phorenzik]

Top work. Also, It's scary how much Richard reminds me of the naturalist Steve Backshall, both in appearance and voice.

[SimonZerafa]

Richard needs some Amiga graphics on that work surface so it can be an Amiga Workbench 😁

[mrginl]

I would watch a YT channel that just shows Richard's woodworking.

[Asteroids-ih]

Looks great and I really enjoyed the video. Love the workbench with the T mould and those monitors look lovely!

[TVindustries]

im really glad you guys scaled back the sideart. if it was an 80s game it woulda been accurate but 90s games, so many were put side by side operators werent as bothered for most games since so many games came as kits more than dedicated cabinets. its perfectly simple and tasteful. makes it look like a long lost official cabinet

[Laserdreamz]

superb stuff, Richard's work on that cabinet is incredible.

[Dorelaxen]

Wow, that turned out fantastic! You are absolutely living the dream, Neil.
