Nicolas’s Game Room
We never really thought to use these marquees for blinders, but Nicolas did. Check out his game room, and massive amount of marquees from ArcadeMarquee.com. Lookin good Nicolas!
Cody’s Custom Battle Toads Arcade
We always like seeing custom builds at Arcade Marquee Dot Com. This one really resonated with us because we used to play Battle Toads a ton as kids as well. Check out Cody’s build with the short blurb below:
“Its my first build so its nowhere near perfect, it doesn’t have T-molding because I used half inch plywood and I don’t have that tool to cut the groove along the edges yet, but I’m still proud of myself lol, I remember playing battletoads at a roller rink as a kid, and its only 3 player on arcade, didnt have $4k so i decided to make a cabinet myself (one that would fit through my door), its just an old PC and some Christmas lights for the marquee at the moment.”

Burger Time Arcade Marquee
Burger Time was one of those games that we never really saw growing up in the 90s. I would assume it was because it was not as profitable to route as say, a Ms. Pacman or Galaga. Now a days though, this is one of the more desirable games on the market. We often see it go for over $1k, and upwards of $2k at Captain’s Auction in Anaheim. As for the art, there’s really nothing more terrifying than a 6 foot sausage with green shoes chasing after you.

Zandy’s Arcade – The Claw!!!
Occasionally we will get orders for claw machines. We very much liked the design of Zandy’s, who happens to be a graphic designer. Check it out below, with a small blurb from the creator: Joseph:
“My girlfriend and I are creating our own game room and I am a graphic designer. We bought some vintage arcade games and have brought them back to life with our own look and style.”

Darksoft Arcade Marquee
Just got done designing a Darksoft Arcade Marquee for the release of the multi cps2 system. The system looks amazing. To have access to all cps2 games in one arcade, non emulated, sounds like fun. Can’t wait to get one.
Check out the marquee in our store here.
NWPAS Weekend
We had a great time at NWPAS weekend. Got to see a lot of great games, meet a lot of cool people, and lost pretty bad in the pinball tournaments.
One of our favorite things is always meeting new people. Had the opportunity to print some marquees for Boss Robot Games and a group of youngsters who produced their own shmup called Zatonis. Always good to see the next generation of gamers creating cool stuff.
Gerry’s Blast City Marquee
We thought this one was pretty cool. One of our customers put together some generic Capcom images to get this marquee. Looks absolutely excellent when back lit. Good stuff Gerry!
Breaker’s Neo Geo Marquee
For one reason or another, certain Neo Geo marquees have been extremely difficult to locate. Breaker’s was one of those. We are happy to announce we have found a good copy, scanned it, and cleaned it up. Check it out in our store here.
Another Castle Arcade Marquee Bar Top
One of the most beautiful uses we have seen from our marquees is the bar top at Another Castle Arcade in Marysville Washington. Using several dozens of the marquees, and sealing with epoxy, they were able to create a 20 foot bar top that was extremely unique, vibrant, and able to withstand the wear and tear of everyday bar use. Check out the full bar at anothercastlearcade.com.
Jeromy’s Jagermeister Arcade
Just got this in from one of our awesome customers. Jeromy put together a Jagermeister themed arcade and it looks super clean! The only thing it’s missing is a built in fridge to keep the Jager in. Thanks again for your order Jeromy.
“I had been wanting a Multi Arcade for quite some time and when I purchased a Pandora’s Box 6 1300 in 1 game system I definitely enjoyed it.
As much enjoyment as this system was, I still wanted more from it. I knew that it would see more action if it were in an arcade cabinet. I also figured it would be a great addition to my home bar for when we had guests. Best if all it would mean no more cables strung out across my livingroom.
I wanted a cabinet that had a sleek look and didnt take up a large amount of space. Unfortunately the pre made cabinets were expensive and were much larger than I wanted. They also weren’t made for my arcade contoller to drop into. I eventually decided to do my own build based off of a Vigolix arcade I found online. So after some careful thought and planning my project began.
The Vigolix plans i had come across was for a small, single player, kid sized cabinet. With some calculations I was able to size it up to fit my needs, and customize it to fit the arcade controller. With my mind set, off I went to Home Depot for my materials. With some planning and work, later that day I had an arcade cabinet built. Best of all it was much cheaper than buying one pre made and it was custom.
The following day I painted the cabinet black, placed the order for the LED strip lighting and started designing a marquee. I decided to stick with the Jagermeister theme I already had with my bar. After playing around with some ideas I came up with a marquee design I was happy with. Once my design was finished I sent my idea to Tim at ArcadeMarquee.com
He looked it over, stated it would work and I placed my order.
While I was awaiting shipment of my finishing touches I masked off then painted some plexiglass for the marquee and screen. To say the least, I was excited to get this project finished and see the final results. In the meantime I let the paint dry and I waited. Once everything I needed to finish the project arrived, I jumped back in full force on my project. I couldnt wait to see it all together and have my vision come to life. Now that it is finished I have to say, it came together even better than I had expected. The arcade cabinet looks great in my home bar and it’s a project I am proud of.
The lighting looks great, the cabinet looked amazing and the arcade marquee was one of the perfect finishing touches that pulled it all together.
I couldnt be happier with how this project came out.
Thank you once again ArcadeMarquee.com ”
