My Mame Cab

Hello everyone,

Well, I was going to purchase a MAME cabinet, an arcade machine with a PC inside running emulators as to play pretty much any game (incase you didn't know).

They seem to go for alot of money so after one went way out of my price range I thought "Screw it!" I pulled all the wiring out of my 4 player "Simpsons" machine, ripped the control panel off, un-screwed the PCB's and lifted the hugh monitor out of it.

Got a small "but extremely powerful" PC to stick in the back of the cabinet, a 22" LCD flatscreen monitor for inside and ordered an X-arcade stick (2player version) which connects via USB and well... these are the pictured step by step.</P>







As you can see I will have some more spray painting to do, will need a thinner piece of wood so that the control panel can slip inside the gap. The "bart, marge, lisa and homer" buttons will be removed along with the coin slot and then the monitor needs bringing forward, should be pretty much done then. Then after that its just minor tweeks here and there.

Now some pics of the game selection screens
