    That's a solid upgrade nice job! 👍 Are you saying you just went in from the back to take out the monitor or you had to do that and then take off a side of the cabinet too?

    Very tempting. I have the first Star Wars release, but put a lot into the full on 3-D molded bezel mod, so I won't be able to mod my Star Wars, but I think, for those cabinets which got the "tainted, nasty" (TN) monitor, and or the ones which have the title game presented on the wrong aspect monitor, I might consider updating those ones. Thanks for sharing this. :)

    PD7,
    Definitely cool to see the bigger monitor in your Atari Star Wars. Display quality looks the same between the 17" and 19", but the extra size should look cool.
    The monitor is SO GOOD in my Atari Star Wars (I have the original), that I don't think I'll do this mod. I've never had an issue with a 17" in my Star Wars cabinet. Now for lightgun cabinets, that's a different story. I did get the Buy Stuff Arcades 19 inch for Time Crisis. I also got their 19 inch for Out Run, but that was so I wouldn't have to mess with the wiring on the 17" stock one.
    I think you're on your way to converting all of your cabs to 19 inch, which I think is great! However, you can really see just how bad the BOE suffers in the Galaga Deluxe sitting side by side with Atari Star Wars. Galaga looks SO WASHED OUT. The BOE model of monitor Arcade1Up chose just can't handle the extreme slant design of the Deluxe cab. Maybe Buy Stuff Arcades will be able to offer a model of BOE in the 19" size that can handle that slant, and if so, it would be worth the upgrade. Fingers crossed :)

    • @PDX7
      @PDX7  5 місяців тому +1

      I agree VGV, because of the black screen Galaga reminds me of a TN monitor. The 17” are so clear it’s tough spending more money sometimes, but I’ve went so far into my SW I said what the heck :)

    • @videogamevegas
      @videogamevegas 5 місяців тому +1

      PD7,
      You've done an AMAZING job upgrading your machines and your arcade is better for it! I hope my mods can turn out as good as yours. Every time you make a modding video it gives me more confidence that I might be able to do it as well. Thank you!
      And I'm sending good vibes out into the universe that Buy Stuff Arcades can get a hold of the right model of BOE vertical screen, so you can upgrade your Deluxes to have great display quality. I'm still miffed that Arcade1Up touted BOE as a positive for the Namco Deluxes, but then chose an insufficient model of BOE, making it look more like you said, a TN. Glad I didn't get rid of my Legacy Edition Pac-Man, but do miss not having Rolling Thunder and Galaga 88 that came with the Pac-Man Deluxe.
      Have a great one!

      We crop the bottom 64 pixels off to match the 1280x960 native PCB resolution, otherwise you would see garbage pixels at the bottom of the screen. The width of the monitor is the same as every other 19" screen. There are no native 1280x960 19" panels currently on the market.
