Trackball (appears to be xgaming, correct me if i'm wrong) - $70 (+shipping) LED Buttons (15, as far as i can tell) - $112.00 Regular buttons (5) - $12 Joystick of unknown origin (would it be xgaming, too, since track ball is?) - $10 (+shipping) Carbon fiber sheeting - $30 (looks like the size of two of these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/200-300-1-5mm-With-100-Real-Carbon-Fiber-plate-panel-sheet-3K-plain-weave-SC-/261683044717?hash=item3ced86616d:g:kwwAAOSwvTxUlOYP) Wood - $10 (generous) For a grand total of $449! Unless he has over $250 in wiring, i'd say it's more like your loss is his gain... |

I just emailed him asking for MORE buttons: |
| BadMouth:
The bolt pattern on the joystick is a JLF or JLF knock-off. x-arcade/happ/etc would be more square. |

I still maintain that CrapMame filled a valuable public service. --- End quote --- Not in this world we live in where nobody wants to ever hear anything negative. I was publically castrated by many people on this site for even suggesting we do a crap-mame-like, tongue in cheek system here. I also suggested that *gasp* there are wrong ways to do things, and not every snowflake is beautiful and unique. People don't seem to get that when I say your stuff sucks it isn't to hurt your feelings, it's so you'll make better stuff next time. I gave up a long time ago... I don't say anything negative on projects, I don't even comment because I'm too old to get yelled at for doing the right thing. Anyway.... My theory is the buttons are dong-shaped, some subtle warning system to let anyone who buys it know up front they are getting screwed. --- End quote --- My biggest gripe with the Disqus comment system is their removal of the dislike feature. CrapMAME was valuable to me when starting my first cabinet in 2008! |

Bad Mouth: Mom's Arcade, cause SHIFTERS! Howard: You're so right about the dick buttons, what game requires 16 buttons that he loved so much he'd be willing to play it with his neck cranked to the right? You're right about the snowflakes too.... I've posted some of what I've thought were the most innocuous criticisms and gotten brow beaten for it. |
