| What's the most impressive MAME Cab you've seen? |

| Generic Eric:
What I like about this site is the chance to see everyone cabinets. To find out how they built them, which bumps in the road the crossed and how the managed it. That sort of thing. The pleasure is in hearing and watching the story. My friends, the best is yet to come, each cabinet is a chapter in the book that is arcadecontrols.com. The story hasn't ended yet and as we all now, everyone loves a sequel. But seriously. There certainly is more to come. I mean, how many cockpit/driving cabs have we seen? What about the shooters? I must say, less is more. I like multifunction cabinets. I really like the discrete ones. I think there is a lean to swappable cps, not to mention the recent rotating cabs. Also lets not forget the console cabs. While not every game on a console can/should be played on a cab', certainly there are some where its perfectly fine. Some of the most impressive cabinets in the future will be the ones that display the innovations that everyone will want to copy. |

Link: http://www.robboweb.com/mamecab/gallery/imagepages/image17.htm And another would definantly be 1ups, because of the Control Panel... Another really nice one is This one... But when Push comes to shove... I want to find out who made this one, and get a play by play on the construction! --- End quote --- That is one impressive cab. I've got to ask does anyone know where any dimensions for that style of cab would be available???? -Alex |

The way he interfaced the L-20s (or whatever) to the druin interface AND the analog on the playstation pad! http://tobywong.50megs.com/ There's a lot of great cabinets in the Examples page, and 1ups control panel has to be one of the best implemented ideas I've seen in a long time. I have to give a lot of credit to Mr. Salty with his cab though, fully changable control panel and everything! http://www.mrsalty.net/arcade/index.shtml And of course, I have to give credit to PhantomPower for his awesome street fighter layout on his MameStations, MameStation II is especially awesome! http://www.leafstation.com The cabinet that I got a lot of inspiration from, WebbPickersGill's cabinet, not the best, not the worst, but very solid design. http://www.webbpickersgill.com/mame/ -I'm sure there's more, but it's 1 am, I'm tired -Cthulhu |

1up's. A classic shape and funcional beyond belief. I love the look and design of it. My interpretation of his cabinet will have even more of a defender shape to it.... Firmly in the parts collection stage now. *patiently waits for his Star Wars yoke to arrive* Bless you 1UP! *sprinkles holy water at him!* |

GREAT thread, guys! when i first started working on this ongoing project, i took a few days and went thru EVERY link on the examples page. there were a lot of nice ones, and a lot of repetitiveness as well.. going thru all of those is a VERY tiring process, and gets boring after a while.. i saved some of the links of my favorites (at home), and i'll post them here later... this thread is a good way to get all of the 'best' stuff in one place. oh, and the 'SuperMAME' is awesome! i've never seen that! the only thing i would change about it would be to have the marquee going the length of the unit, not smaller and centered as it it.. |
