Hi,
I had a similar idea once and always thought they should be fairly easy to get considering high street stores often have this sort of set-up, I did a quick search for secure games console display cases and got a few results.
This place in Canada seems to be about right, I'd guess there must be somewhere in the U.K

All the best,

Subject: [MCG] Video games exhibition
Hello MCGers,
I'm working on an exhibition in which I'm planning on displaying playable examples of retro videogame consoles.
Would anybody be able to recommend any cabinets suitable for displaying these consoles in a secure way - so that they are visible, but not accessible? The controllers need to be accessible, but ideally I'd like the consoles themselves to be protected from any tampering.
Any pointers much appreciated!
Thanks,
Roger
