Arcade Wall Cabinet Widescreen (ARCtron-W)

Thanks for checking out my  ARCtron-W (Arcade Wall Cabinet Widescreen) build!

This is the next evolution in my ARCtron series — a sleek widescreen wall-mounted arcade system that brings modern hardware and flexible control options into one beautifully compact build. It’s got magnets, modular panels, and that clean retro-futuristic look you know by now.

This one gives you  more freedom than ever . Swap between stick panels with the  magnetic lock-in-place design — go full arcade mode for fight nights with friends, or switch to the  Point-n-Click layout for strategy games or adventures. And if you’re a  Patreon , you’ll get access to more layouts and future design variations to keep expanding your setup! Right now Parametric Models for the Stick Panel and Control Panel is in BETA , and available as Early Access for paying Patreon members. These lets you customize the panels to fit your needs.

Downloads & Files

I highly recommend downloading the  ARCtron-W_ALL ZIP package , as it contains everything you need — 3MF and STL files , plus  PDF Documentation like  Parts to Source ,  Assembly Guide ,  Wiring Diagrams , and  Design Options . You’ll find it under “ Download STL ”, and the same documentation is also listed below this description. The 3MF files are  pre-arranged for Bambu X1C and P1S print beds with settings like material, supports, and brim.

Printing & Materials

I use  PLA only in this build.

Electronics & Setup

The ARCtron-W is designed to run on  mini PCs such as the  Beelink EQ R6 or  SER5 , with full compatibility for:

ChimeraOS (console-like Steam launcher setup) Bazzite (Steam Deck experience + desktop mode) Windows (maximum compatibility for emulators and launchers)

You can also go with a Raspberry Pi for Emulation of Retro Games.

You’ll find  two wiring diagrams in the documentation — one for 12V DC setups and one for AC-powered configurations.

Customization & Finishing

Like the ARCtron-R, this build loves details. Add decals, rub-off transfers, or water-slide logos for that true arcade finish. Sand, paint, polish — make it yours! A  full list of parts (Amazon & AliExpress links) is included for easy sourcing, from joysticks and buttons to magnets, LEDs, and amplifiers.

Please Read Before Printing

Read through  all documentation before you start printing. It’ will save you both time and filament!
