Make a Playstation 5 Arcade cabinet out of LEGO

21 februar 2024

Yes, it does require a lot of LEGO® parts, but you can build your PlayStation 5 into a working arcade cabinet with LEGO®. If you don't have a PlayStation 5, then of course, if you're a bit handy, you can also build in an Xbox or Nintendo Switch. In the video below, Riley from the YouTube channel Brick Science shows how he managed to pull this off.

Of course, this cannot be replicated by just anyone. But this is a great proof of concept. It is also quite interesting to see the different techniques Riley uses in construction. Like the PlayStation logo he makes for the top of the arcade cabinet. Riley uses an LED strip to illuminate the logo, but if you want to make your own, you can use the individual lighting parts from ToyPro. The hardest part to make was the engineering needed to connect the buttons and joystick to the controllers. This didn't work for all the buttons and this limits the number of games you can play. Also, you can't start playing very enthusiastically, as something might just break off. All in all, it turned out to be a very cool arcade cabinet that we envy!

So we would like to thank Riley very much for sharing this video. We definitely recommend following him on his YouTube channel Brick Science. There, he regularly shows the most amazing builds. For example, he also made an entire room out of LEGO®. No, not in miniature, but actual size. Definitely worth following.
