Man, these things cost alot...
Gunstar Hero:
The beautiful thing about the MAME hobby is, you can spend as much or as little as you want to, and you have something awesome to show for it.
Like we were saying on the last thread like this, you wanna spend some money? Try racing R/C cars or flying R/C planes. My MAIN R/C race car cost almost $1000 wth all the upgrades and crap, then I have like 4 other cars my buddies car is way over that... and we haven't even looked at them in almost a year. :P

Just as an exercise in self-chastisement:
$35 - dead Atari Football cab @ thrift store
$32 - 2 T-Sticks
$180 - 24" Apex TV
$100 - MacG3 233MHz Desktop
$40 - USB card
$40 - I-PAC 2 (USB)
$20 - Rollers for 4.5" Atari Football Trac-balls
$50 - Misc Buttons, Switches, Wiring, and connectors
$60 - new balls for Trac-balls
$100 - tools, shipping, and things I forgot about buying
Total about $650 so far.

Man, if we were talking about the price of bicycles, I'd really be crying.
Arcade machines are easy.
