I figured Super Metroid was due, especially in light of the recent E3 announcements. Here’ s a Super Metroid overlay, I pulled character art from the 2002 Manga by Ishikawa Kenji (art).

I’ve been working on this realistic arcade overlay for weeks now and really wanted to share the result with you guys. It’s far from finished yet, but it shows what can be done with photoshop.

That looks amazing! Great work!
Thanks for sharing Fernand. The vignette effect looks great. What are the reflections based on?
These overlays are awesome! I didn’t see one but, might there be one for the BS-X?
Can someone please re-post a link to the glassy psx and gba keys overlays? The two links dl.dropbox.com/u/70606510/glassy_gba.zip and dl.dropbox.com/u/70606510/glassy_ps.zip are dead. Thanks
See these in my email and had to drop by and say how very cool they are.
Great job and thanks for sharing

TouchToggleMenu
This overlay intended for phones and tablets is invisible and does exactly one thing. Opens the menu when you touch or click anywhere on the screen, so you don’t have to dedicate any gamepad buttons for that purpose or cause unintended game actions with a combo.

I love the Arcade overlays from John.Merrit, i’m using his generic cabinet png with files from Mr’do to create what is missing, but i don’t know if it’s good enough, what do you think? i don’t want them to be real, just a little bit realistic…
my first attempt

Bodomterror it’s good, but you need to increase opacity in my opinion, image in background is seen through overlay. My new snes overlay with correct aspect ratio http://www.mediafire.com/file/uwhyeev63husl8b/Super_Nintendo.zip settings: integer scale off, aspect ratio custom, viewport x 304, viewport y 96, viewport width 1072, viewport height 804.
Yeah i wanted to be like that, like a glass panel so i can see whats in front of the cabinet, its an image that i added to create a reflection, its not the background behind the cabinet.
You my try my glass effect from here http://www.mediafire.com/file/4mcbr2exgo2eurk/SuperNintendoEntertainmentSystemBezel1920x1080glassdeki.png and put the only transparent area over your overlay and play with brightness and contrast either on gimp or in photoshop.
