I have a usb hub just behind the arcades and I'm using USB ribbon cables I found on Amazon- https://smile.amazon.com/Cable-Ribbon-Degree-Standard-Charging/dp/B077M5KF46/ref=sxts_rp_s1_0?crid=PC8DIJI5IOG&cv_ct_cx=usb+ribbon+cable&keywords=usb+ribbon+cable&pd_rd_i=B077M5KF46&pd_rd_r=02fe3154-e631-4aba-9598-c54ed5e699fe&pd_rd_w=wMKoK&pd_rd_wg=01lyG&pf_rd_p=29dcfc78-5030-4047-b3bb-fd095cf7aa8a&pf_rd_r=9SYWREE3EMAQX5Y9JCVP&psc=1&qid=1638825318&sprefix=usb+ri%2Caps%2C221&sr=1-1-f0029781-b79b-4b60-9cb0-eeda4dea34d6
You can buy them at different lengths so I try to get the right length for each arcade.

And That little duck was a fun Etsy find- https://www.etsy.com/listing/1046967661/2-hand-painted-miniature-ducklings-micro?ref=yr_purchases

Here is an updated view of the tiny arcade. We got Tiny Tvs all over the place.

I was frustrated that Hallmark didn't release a new arcade ornament this year; so I took some old ones and redressed them to be Alien and Godzilla cabinets.

Thank you for the video. The sound effects really make you feel like you're standing in an arcade!

I love that feeling it takes me back for sure. I will be adding some more in the future so I'll post updates then.
Also I'm really looking forward to that larger touch screen, any Idea on when it might release or any demos of it working?

TinyTV & Tiny Video Player / Tiny video player screen sizes

I was wondering if there is any future plan to make other screen sizes available for the Tiny Video player?
I have been building some custom arcades with them and would love some slightly larger screens.
or are there any screens elsewhere that are compatible?

Can I add these pictures to our TinyTV Hall of Fame blog? https://tinycircuits.com/blogs/news/tinytv-hall-of-fame

Sure you can, it would be an honor   

Here is a video showing the Arcades in action.

In the back is just a simple USB ribbon cable for power.

 This has been a very fun project to work on. I have discovered that the Hallmark arcade cabinet ornaments are the perfect size to put the Tiny TV into. I had to carve away some plastic for it to fit but its looking pretty good after a lot of cutting and hot glue. I cant wait for Hallmark to announce this years arcade cabinet on July 10th. I'm already planning the next one.

I have these tiny TVs loaded with many full game Playthroughs.

I'd love to make a Donkey Kong with a playthrough to the kill screen. That might be in the future as well.
