BTW, the more recent incarnation of that decal actually looks a fair bit better than the early version shown in the photo. It's hard to tell they aren't real from a few feet away. I'm looking at finding ways to get the price down on them. |

Anyway, enjoy your machines. :cheers: --- End quote --- Which poses the obvious question. Why in the world would you build a mame (or whatever cabinet) from scratch, bother to use accurate arcade controls and designs and then NOT do you best to make it look like something you could find in a real arcade? I've got arcade cabinets as well, but when I build a mame cab, reagardless of if the design is original or a rip-off of a real arcade model, the end result always looks like something that wouldn't be out of place in an arcade. I really don't that that's possible without some sort of coin mech device. |

Well my cabinet is a console cabinet so its not really a mame or arcade emulator cabinet. I am putting an xbox 360 in it so I just want it to mock/look like an arcade cab. Its just a cheap alternative to a real coin door. I may go with the fake coin door from Happ its like 35 bucks but has no mechanisms in it. So Randy any idea when it will be back in stock? |

I have one left, at the moment, that I offered to someone else a few days ago. If I don't hear from them by Monday, it's yours. Drop me an email then, and I'll make sure you get it. |
