The MAME Cabinet Has Landed

I’ve always wanted a MAME cabinet. Unfortunately, I never had the time to build one myself. (For the uninitiated, MAME stands for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator, software which emulates those classic arcade games many of us grew up with.)

Anyway, when I attended the last Penny Arcade Charity Auction I was lucky enough to bid on and win a MAME cabinet from Dream Authentics. They’ve been working away on it, and I just received some pictures that I thought I’d share. (Note that I went for the Kiocade cabinet simply because it wasn’t as deep as the other cabinets and can fit through the front door. Trust me, they’re huge!)

    Seems a rock solid build from the pics at the very least and it even has a big trackball for Arkanoid. Ah, one of these days I will get one… when I can spare the bucks to build it

    Congratulations. Were there any vital pieces of furniture that had to go in order to make room for /Jolson MAME /Joslon?

    No furniture has had to leave the building as of yet… but it may end up being stored in the plastic instrument room where I have the piles of Guitar Hero and Rock Band stuff.

    I built a mame cabinet back in 98, when I first moved to OR. I miss it!
