| cw:
After my first mame cab I picked up a gutted pole 2 cab and make myself a driving mame cab...and then the dedicated cab bug got me... and it got me good.... new projects include race drivin cockpit, phoenix, and gunfight... and the rest http://ggdb.com/Collectors/ViewMember.aspx?mid=298 |

I rebuild my cab a ton of times... but I went with hot swappable control panels... So my one cab has a dedicated defender control panel, 2player 8ways fighter, classic (4 way, asteroid buttons, then a qbert 4way), a tron control panel (with a few extra buttons for spinner games, A trackball control panel, a 49way control panel (with buttons for consoles... but don't like it all that much)... And a starwars light (hydra controller)... I also have the parts and plans for a ton more parts and plans for 3 person driving cab... but might stick with two for space... ahh the list goes on. And I have a dreamcast cabinet. This one was nice and used it all the time for 5 months... and I haven't turned it on in ages. Might get rid of it and use the parts for a cocktail table... |

I am almost done with my cab, and I don't really see why I would build another. It was fun and it is nice, but I think I will go with the real thing from here on out. I just don't picture mameing another cab. |

To go with "the real thing" I presume you mean the actual video games? I have room for 3 games. For me, to maximize gameplay with the space I have - mame is the answer. I enjoy so many games that it would take a huge frankenpanel and a rotatable monitor to play all the trackball, 4 way, 8 way, dual 8 way, driving and spinner games I like. |
