Facebook Headquarters Using MAME!
« on: May 28, 2012, 05:18:03 pm »
I was watching some random CNBC mini-documentary on Facebook and they were talking about all the cool perks of working there (free food, dogs, weird chairs, etc.) and they also mentioned that the company HQ has a free Arcade Machine....I quickly grabbed the remote and paused. Apparently Facebook is legally entitled to play "The Simpsons Arcade" 4-player....pretty random I know, but I thought it was funny. Too bad they settled for the X-Arcade setup instead of making their own...

Well, like any responsible person, they got to the nag screen, and realized they couldn't in good conscience type in "ok" or move the joystick back and forth. Facebook, the bastion of integrity.

They were looking for the "o" and "k" buttons.   >:D
