Mame - Good or Bad for the Arcade Biz ?
RayB:
I used to buy JAMMA boards. I had:
Super Dodge Ball
Rolling Thunder
Black Tiger
Smash TV
...
I honestly see no point to it anymore.

Right, which proves my point that mame is not destroying the arcades since mame games aren't in the arcades. This is what I was going after, you proving yourself wrong :) I replied in such a way so you'd respond like you did so you'd realize that.
RayB:
The problem with arcades today is that THEY NEED MORE COWBELL!

It's not because the average computer can't handle the BEST arcade game... it's because emulation first of all requires you to make one computer act like another, and that takes alot of power. But honestly arcade hardware is pretty much console based now...
Tekken 5, Soul Calibur 2 - PS2 based System 256 board
Initial D, Guilty Gear X2, KOF Atomiswave - Dreamcast based Naomi/Hikaru/Atomiswave board
Outrun 2, Ghost Squad, HOTD3, Virtua Cop 3 - XBOX based Chihiro board
F-Zero AX - Gamecube based Triforce board (I love the name of this one! ;D)
... that's why you see such quick and accurate arcade conversions to home.
