I want to play console games standing up at my cabinet with arcade controls about as much as I want to play arcade games from my couch with a gamepad.

I actually do play console games on my cabinet and arcade games on my modded xbox with a gamepad.   

The reason I do the former is that my daughter can manipulate a joystick much easier than a gamepad, so she has a lot of fun sitting on a barstool in front of my cab and playing GBA-type barbie games on my arcade.  It's not "authentic" but tell that to her  :)

The reason I do the latter is sometimes I'm sitting in front of my tv and feel like playing donkey kong but don't feel like going standing in front of my cab to do it.  It's not "authentic" but I don't particularly care since I'm just vegging anyways.   

So to each his own.  If you have a mame cab already, why NOT add the extra emulators for consoles?  It's not like it takes that much more effort and then its always there if you need it.  Same with putting arcade games on your modded xbox.  Now if a friends over and wants to play techmo bowl I'm going to take them into the living room and play on the xbox, not the arcade...but that doesn't mean there's not ever a need to do the other.
