| Good cabinet to mame? |

eBay Link Seems pretty cheap to me. I've been reading this board for a while, and i'm very interested in making a machine of my own. Since its an empty cabinet, I assume it would be good to MAME. Since the guy lives about 20 minutes from me, I can just take a drive and grab it. Anyway, think its a good caibinet to make into a MAME? or is it not even worth the 50 on the buy it now. Thanks |

Would it have killed the seller to orient a photo correctly? I say "no, don't buy it", simply out of spite since I hurt my neck tilting my head. Seriously, though, Maming that cab would leave you a little limited as to what controls you can fit and what monitor you can use. What games do you want to support? If you're gonna say SF2, then pass on this. If you're feeling adventurous, why not take it and make it a Pac Man/Ms. Pac Man and grab another cabinet for Maming? |

ya, it did really bother me that the guy didn't have the photo set right. Since I'm kinda lacking on room, I pretty much gotta pick 1 cab to mame. Thanks for the advice. I guess i'll keep lookin, cause I would like to play SF2 and other games like that. |

If this is a "one cab to play them all" type of situation, pass on the Pac cab. One thing to think of though, is you could likely grab that cab and trade with someone here or elsewhere for a more MAME-able cab seeing as even though Pacs are super easy to find, they're always in demand.
