Those who have built a cab a couple of years ago...

How many of you wire up coin doors to be used on your cabs? The reason I am saying this is I am not even done with my cab yet, but I bought a non working over under coin door for decoration. If I were to start my cabinet over right now, I would have bought a working new coin door and wired it up. I just dont think its the same when you dont have to put quarters in and have unlimited credits, I mean thats what makes arcade games fun right? You play until you run out of money, now we can play as long as we want, infinite credits, not as fun, no competition.

I did this. It's quite easy to get it hooked up to the coin 1 and coin 2 on the IPAC. Adds a little bit more authenticity in my opinion. :)

I'm thinking of selling my MAME cab to buy a pinball machine
