Just got one of the 4 player Turtles Arcade 1up machines and wanting to get it playing a better selection of games than just Turtles and Turtles in Time. I do like the size of them and at £100 it leaves a bit of spare cash to modify it.

Has anyone modified one or have a list of parts needed, or suggestions what to get over what not to get? I've watched a few Youtube videos but unsure if its going to be better using an old Lenovo i7 tower I have, Rappberry Pi, or even a Pandoras Box. I'm not looking to spend a lot of money on it just get it playing a better selection of games, perhaps update the controls too

cheers

I ended up ordering a Pandoras Box DX off Amazon, it seemed the best option for price and install time, I'm going to try and keep it cheap and cheerful see if I can get a half decent machine for what they are.

So far i've spent £100 on the machine and its cost about £110 for the Pandoras Box, driver board for the lcd, 2 Zippy sticks, 2 lots of 6 buttons and 2 lots of 3 buttons. I'll probably keep the player 3 and 4 joysticks as the Arcade 1up ones, not 100% sure yet.The Pandora box didn't come with a power supply either which was a bit meh

This is as far as i've got in the back, waiting for the joystick and buttons to come now.
