So after working on this the last few months my updated and upgraded arcade cabinet is finally finished. I have a few classic arcade cabs in the garage that I have kept stock, but after getting sick of playing my Steam games on an Atgames Legends Ultimate via OTG, I decided to level up and "restore" this hollowed out Dynamo HS-5 that I got from a friend that was no longer in use.
Although, I can already play my favorite classic arcade favorites in an OG cabinet+CRT monitor, I also wanted to be able to able to play modern arcade-style games like Street Fighter 6, Blazing Chrome, Shredder's Revenge, Pac-Man Championship Edition, etc on current gen hardware, but within the form factor of an arcade cab.
The unit is even hardwired into my internet via ethernet cable, so being able to play ranked matches in Street Fighter 6 on an actual arcade setup is like a dream come true.
With that said, playing this thing has been a blast and I send lots of thanks & appreciation to all of you who have offered advice along the way. Cheers & thank you all for your help.
