Are you wanting a 19" or 25" screen?

If you have the space, time, and money, I'd say build a showcase cabinet with a 33" Wells Gardner monitor.

He'll build it in his basement, and then find out he can't get it out when he needs to move it.  ;D

My favorite is the Midway upright cabinet. It's used for the MK series and the KI series. Oversized control panel versions were used in games like NBA Jam and NFL Blitz.

I know I've seen plans for it online before, but I went looking just now and couldn't find them. It's the ultimate machine, though (IMO).

Do you already have the TV?

I have seen showcase cabinets with 27" monitors before.

Is this going to run Mame?
