brian and his restoration project on his "baby"

[Brian]

warning, may induce jealously with some of the more hardcore gamers on here...

last year, I took the plunge and bought a japanese "sit down" arcade cabinet.. these things are ace, they are "low slung" so you can sit in front of it to play, they come with drinks holders and ashtrays too!


here's the lil bugger...


and a herd of 'em in their native habitat!

here's a link to my step by step restoration and modification of the little beast to run a PC fully loaded with every emulator possible ... bwaha!

Brian,

Nice job on the history of the project. I Just read the entire thing and now I'm itching to start the one project I've been putting off for a long time...

A mame cabinet...

I'm pretty much up to date with the latest version of mame (etc etc...) and I’ve seen a handful of sites dedicated to mame-rom cabinets... might start this project this weekend... actually next weekend as the wife’s in Chicago, gives me more RnD time

Anyways, good to see your still a hardcore gamer !

Cheers,

don
