Console emulation in my cab, which route should I take?
ChrisK:
Some console games are more conducive to cabinet play than others. Mario Brothers? Very nice. Legend of Zelda? Not so much!
Knightlore:
Well I had loads of different console systems in a bartop I used to own a few years back and I just don't like playing games like Mario using arcade sticks - I find it a bit awkward on some levels.
For now I've just got the latest Mame (with a few CHD's thrown in) and Daphne and that's enough for me I think. I've decided to use my old fave "Mala" because it's very simple and quick to setup compared with some others and looks nice and simple/clean.
I will at some point build a hybrid media centre/emulation pc for the lounge which I'll put everything in, including consoles, Amiga/St etc - probablly running hyperspin with a couple of wireless controllers...
