Simulator Rigs

What to document

Record the model, hardware generation, game list, dimensions, weight, power label, controls, displays, connectivity, serial number and included accessories. Photograph the exact machine rather than relying on stock images.

Buying checks

• Confirm load ratings and mounting standards.
• Measure seat travel and display distance.
• Plan cable management, vibration and power.

Ownership and support

Consumer home cabinets, commercial machines and custom builds use different support models. Compare warranty, firmware, replacement parts, standard interfaces and community documentation before treating two similar-looking cabinets as equivalent.

Official or primary resources

• Use exact machine labels, manuals and component documentation.
