So now I have this awesome cabinet and I never play it...

I'm just slightly less attractive
than my horrible personality,
so I remain unattached with
all the free time to play video games
that I need.
The only downside is I have to play with myself....

It works out great.

Of course work has to co-operate for this wonderful master plan to unfold properly ;)

What is this "me" time of which you speak?  :)

Right now my wife is working nights and weekends so I end up taking care of my little boy by myself.  By the time I get him to bed I'm exhausted. I'm hoping one of these days her schedule improves. Would be nice to have us both home at the same time.

lol. Reading between the lines reveals alot sometimes ;)

In all honesty though, In addition to the times she is working, we have agreed times that we can just do our own thing. She likes playing piano etc. as well as a few TV shows that I don't like so it works pretty well. The piano is in the games/music room though so I will just have to get her the music for popular arcade titles so we won't clash :D

Luckily, my wife let me move our MAME cabinet into the living room. It has worked out much better this way and we both play it more.

Ginsu, after you left this comment, my wife and I discussed this last night.  Her comment was... "then what would we do with the game room?"  :)

I think it's just a matter of finding THE chair/couch for her.  She's really into reading, so if we found the perfect place and put it into the game room, I would have countless nights of 30 minutes worth of gaming time...
