Vectrex Cocktail

[minwah]

I built this in the summer, just got around to taking some pics.

The Vectrex has not been decased or modified, it's just sat on a shelf on its back. The only thing I do plan to do is add a cable out from the Vectrex for an external reset switch (the button on the front).

The joystick is a Sanwa 'J-Stik', and the buttons Gold Leafs. I wanted to use real leaf joystick/buttons but there is not enough space between the underside of the tabletop and the front of the Vectrex.

Wow, just brilliant!

Those other 2 cabs don't look too untidy, either!

I haven't finished the Asteroids one yet but it looks nice!

The other cabs make my old little Asty cabaret look massive!

I really like that too!

Can we see some pix of the inside too, please?

 

[minwah]

Thanks chaps!

I keep forgetting to take pics of the inside but will try to remember to do so this weekend. The light isn't good enough in the evenings for me to take a good pic...
