How big is the screen on the arcade? The reason I ask is that I am building an arcade clone and I found a TV at a local Goodwill store, perfect condition, $3.95. It's 19"

I'm guessing this is AROUND the size of the arcades screen, because I always remembered being rather close to the screen.

Thanks!

I'll do the first now. And if I don't get an answer soon, I'll do the second. :-P I'm sure there is someone here who owns an arcade.

Ok, I'm going to make a close estimate and say 24-26 inches. That's what it seems to size around.

I email an arcade supplier and they said it was 29" E11.gif

Someone on the board also said the same thing.

Make sure that the viewable areas are the same. Often times manufactures will use the diagonal width of the entire unit in advertisements.
