Hey everyone.. First post here...
Well like the subject line says, I just got into the whole MAME world a couple of weeks ago and just picked up a Namco Tekken Cabinet for $230 off a local online auction tonight... I'll be picking it up this weekend...
Here are some pics of what I won... (Looking for opinions on if it's worth $230 or not... Did I do good???)
So my plans are to add 4 more buttons (2 for each player), get a j-pac and an arcade vga card for the computer I'm going to put in it.. Also plan on adding some graphics to the control board as well.. Probably won't customize the cab other then this... It looks in good condition and don't really want to modify the stock look... Won't really know until I see it in person... That will be back burner stuff for now, just want to get it up and running...
The PC is a P4 2.8 Ghz with 1 Gig of RAM, 40 Gig HD, and WinXP SP3. I'm going to run Maximus Arcade which will emulate MAME, SNES, N64, and Sega Genesis. I might add more but just wanted to get a good base started.. I've already got about 10 - 15 roms per emulator in MA to start and will obviously add more in the future...
I just wanted to run this past the experts here to see if there is anything I'm missing or haven't thought of... I don't have any info on the cab I bought other than it's confirmed to be working.
Does anyone have any info on this cabinet? Like the monitor size, what resolutions I can run at (will I need the arcade vga card?)
I'm assuming it's a JAMMA setup, would that be correct?
Well I would appreciate any feedback or possible answers to my questions... Thanks in advance...
Really excited right now...
