How Crazy is Our Homemade Arcade? - Watch Lauren's Reaction!

- I built an arcade for our home! I dreamed about having an arcade machine when I was a kid, and although I've taken more than a decade off from gaming, I thought this would be a fun project. We all need a break from life's stressors and the chance to tap into our childhood.
I followed Jerry Lui's awesome build guide when constructing this arcade: imgur.com/gallery/Hqp687m
A few things I learned during this build:
- Avoid using MDF or any other particle board. Use real wood instead. It may be a little more expensive, but you'll have much higher quality product in the end.
- Dry Wall Spackling is your friend for filling any gaps while building this machine.
- I extended the shelf the control panel sits on for added stability
- It may be helpful to add boards both vertically and horizontally within the frame to stabilize as well as to hold the monitor in place.
I want to thank Ryobi for provide many of the tools I used within this project. I also want to thank the Retropie community for developing the software I use in my arcade machine: retropie.org.uk/
Special thanks to Rick Dangerous for all his work advancing Retropie!
Amazing setup. I hope you and your family have lots of fun playing retro games.
Thank you for all your hard work in making your software special!

He's gonna make a good dad. Imagine a dad who makes your toys😍😍😍.
My dad made a lot of my toys
Wait did I miss something? Are they having a baby or is this just a general statement??
@@jasmineh617 it's just a general statement...😂🤣
Agreed 😁
@@HangingWithTheHamiltons obviously he was a great dad 😊
He's a great husband and he's going to be a great father. Lauren is a lucky woman because he's a handyman with brains.
Say that
Word, cuz it's usually one or the other 😫
Yall are always saying that she is lucky to have him as a husband but i think both of them are kinda genius…
@@inema1235Yes they are both lucky that they found love together/with each other. But a man like Cameron is rare. Lauren is lovely but what's her hidden talent? She's ordinary/average just like the rest of us.
@@georgiabarker6852 Why the need to always criticize other women? Why not encourage each other? We don't know everything about Lauren so why assume " she's ordinary/average" like you, she's not you though...Give her a break, you sound like you're jealous of her because Cameron loves her...
Did he just build an arcade. Yooo Lauren your kids are going to have the best childhood ever
2:20 there goes that "mad scientist" again 😂.
Although this is not like the usual content, it was fun to watch. I love how you both maintain individuality yet, still have a presence together as a couple. Will we be seeing more vlogs/video like these? Its really interesting.
Yes we want to share our individual passions and our passions together
@@HangingWithTheHamiltons That’s wonderful. Looking forward to those videos.😍😍
Watching a video where Cameron is building an arcade is interesting, mentally stimulating and damn a man that can build things is super fine.
Damn Cam a scientist and handy! And finds joy in watching his beautiful wife enjoy the fruits of his labor. ❤
Lauren won😍. A smart, charming and handy hunk 🤦🏾 Jesus I see what you’ve done for others 🙏🏽
Bruh! Everything in one, lol. Awesome
Where would anyone get the energy to hate this beautiful couple? ❤️❤️❤️💕
3 petty people who have very unhappy lives
I love a Man who can build things! 😍And Cameron’s excitement is so cute 😂
lol the Cardi reference. This was freaking incredible! I can’t believe Cam built this himself lol 😆 So cute Lauren having fun with it. It’s really nice to have a brilliant handy man around. 😂
With DIY videos i usually skip the end to see the finished product, but your video was perfectly edited and NOT dragged out to where i had to. I'm interested to see what else you build in the future!
This is honestly the coolest thing I’ve seen someone do in a while. You did great Cameron! Now to make more to sell 👀 cause I want one
I want one too. In Pink please lol
Ok. This is phenomenal! I’m still in awe of how smart and handy Cameron is. Both of you are the total package.
I know he’s yours Lauren but this man is so talented and fine lol 😂 I think just overall his attitude and demeanor is just the shit 😂😂🥰
Self sufficient, intelligent, emotionally available mature man.. damn! Lauren won the lotto.❤️
This was great!! I really admire people that build things like this, you made it look so easy. Well done!
It was tough but a lot of fun !
When I read "homemade arcade" I didn't expect this. This is epic!
Such a well rounded and talented man. They are both lucky to have each other. Love this couple!
I've just finished watching Love is Blind and soooooo happy Cameron and Lauren are still together. ❤
Me too
Lauren ! Do you realize how much you are blessed ? Thank God everyday for that man. Ok !
Cameron is just the best! Already a wonderful person and husband . Will make a great dad!
Brains, loooks, personality and handy! 10/10
I'm so fascinated by people who can do stuff like this!!! This is lit
I love a corporate man who is handy and can get his hands dirty.
Wow this is dope! Would love to install something like this, never thought of actually building one. Really cool bro 🤜🏾🤛🏾
That setup though! Love seeing Cameron's nerdy side come out and Lauren's reaction at the end was adorable! Hope you, your family, and guests enjoy the retro vibes and nostalgia.
you are literally the most fun geek I've ever seen, you both are so lucky ❤️
This is a whole other level of DIY 🤣. Great Job 👍
That’s just awesome!!!!! Totally saved $$$ on buying different gaming consoles! Genius idea👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Great job! This brings back memories of all my arcade days 😊 Congratulations on the new home!
Wow!! We just picture things in a box from a factory. Great to see building and design from scratch. The anticipation of waiting for the finished product was captivating.👏👏👏👏👏👏
I love how creative he is. I love it
Geek recognizes geek. Got a subscriber, I love both you guys,I think you should do more vids like this.
Taking me back to memory lane. I remember going to the arcade to play video games.Well done on creating our childhood masterpiece....and you guys owe South Africa a visit.
I came here because of how he asked on the stories. Cameron is so humble 😭
Thank you!
That was really great. Your kids will be so lucky to have a dad like you.
*Super cool!!! I would like one like that but with a high gloss finish.*
Yes I’m planning to wrap it with artwork printed on vinyl later
Good job with this! It came out great and seeing Lauren playing at the end was the cherry on top lol! Really cool project!

I also grew up in the 90's Where me and my 2 brothers loved playing video games all the time, awww wish I had one of these (miss 90's music and games) I like that you built this for fun.

Congratulations 👏🏾✊🏾
Great job Cameron. Keep up the great work
This is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! The kid in me is screaming!!!!! Can definitely see myself playing some Galaga, PAC-man, or Mortal Kombat on this! I want one so badly, but alas I live in an apartment. When I buy a house next year (fingers crossed) this will have to be a project. Love using the pi to run it!!!!! Will probably have to get my dad to do the build though because I’m not handy at all. Great job Cam!!!!!!! More things like this. Even videos for other uses of the raspberry pi would be great. I’m just getting into them and would love to see how creative you can be with them. Thanks for sharing!
Love it!! It is so beautiful!!
Omg Cam thats so cool 🥰 would be hella fun having that too play on whenever. Love you guys watching from New Zealand 🇳🇿 ❤
Saving this video for a project later. Very dope!
Nice!!! Good job on it!!!
