Legality of Mame cabinets
<< < (4/5) > >>
Tiger-Heli:
It is a MAMETM trademark infringement to have a MAME cabinet.  It is acceptable to have an arcade cabinet with MAME installed, or a generic emulator cabinet which runs MAME.   :police:

If you really want to be legal have the company get an ultracade.

Anyway, the only way to be legal is get starrom roms or buy a hotrod with the capcom games.

Like I said you can always get collections.

I never said it would be for-profit. The legality of that is obvious enough that I wouldn't bother to ask. I'm not even putting a coin door on the machine.

Think of it like playing a VHS copied movie.

I'm with CC.  In any public setting, it's always best to play by the rules. 

The last thing you want is a disgruntled employee making noise about the thing (and they will) and responsibility for it landing squarely in your lap.

Maybe there would never be a problem, but then maybe you could end up with no job, or worse, in court.

Is it really worth the risk?
