Buying LEGAL retro games on CD

BobA:

I gave you some advice in another thread but you seem to keep wanting to attract attention to yourself.

We go around this circle at least once a year.  It never will be legal to sell mame with a bunch of games and there are things you can buy but they do not interface as easily.  One of the best is the Capcom collection that used to come free with a HotRod control panel.  At least they provided it free even thou they do not seem to be in business any more. There are other collections of games that can be purchased and sold with a cab if you give them the original collection.

As mgb said:
This really sums it up perfectly. There really is no argument that can be made against it.
building and selling mame cabs, unless they are just cabs and controls and no software, just isn't a great business model.

If you want to sell your cab on Kijiji or Craigs list I cannot see why it would attract alot of attention from Namco as there are commercial companies who have been selling a whole bunch with their cabs and do not seem to have a problem.

Another thing that I would like to say is I have built 8 to 10 bartops and I may give them away, wear them out, or do other things to them but I have never said I had one for sale on this forum.

Lets not continue to attract attention to what you think is a problem. There is no real solution except bare (no software) cabs or cabs where the seller does not keep saying look at me look at me I have a problem.  Maybe you are the problem.
