Certainly not since the 80's. You only have to look at the typical hulking monstrocities built by people on arcadecontrols.com to acertain the kind of naffness being inflicted on the arcade going public. Unfortunately the Japanese cabinets haven't been very asthetically pleasing since the advent of the flatscreen panel. The Lindberg cabinet looks like some sort of PC desk. The Vewlix is the only remotely attractive cabinet available today in my opinion. I don’t think Westerners can design attractive cabinets. Certainly not since the 80′s.
