My MAME Cabient

 Honestly its been finished for a month but things like Dwarf Fortress and vacation stopped me. Its a lot of fun with another person. I showed one of my buds the cabinet and he said "So its a black box with an emulator" . As true as he was the X - Arcade joystick(s very fun to use) w ashed away all of his doubt with some obscure fighting games. The Computer in the cabinet is pretty old so it can't run Jackie Chan / MK games and it takes AGES to load up but its fine. The joystick likes to sticks every once in a while nad a button stopped working for a minute so its not perfect. All in all its fun and needs a little extra work (mainly a border or side images).

Everyone seems to downplay MAME cabs when they first see them (It's just a box and emulator) but that misses the point. MAME cabs are built to recreate an experience you need to stand up to play these games feel that tension in your calves. It would be like someone saying that listening to a concert in surround sound is just like buying the cassette tape or watching a movie on blu-ray is only a bit better than getting it on VHS. Good job.
