How often do you play your Mame cab?
Turnarcades:
Almost never at the moment - since losing use of my left arm, I'm still trying to regain full movement and strength in it. I might be good for simple joystick movements, but I'll never be a wiz at Street Fighter again or the old hand/eye dependant games like DK or Pac-man.
Plus I got business to take care of; I'm too busy working on other people's cabinets!

I play mine quite a lot. I'm *very* happy with gameplay.
TelcoLou: Hey, we miss you on gp32x.com! :)

I fire it up once a day for a quick game. When the wifey's not home I crank it! ;D

You are not weird. I feel exactly the same way. About 3/4 in to every build I start planning out the next one! I also love tinkering with my 2 "finished" ones - I'm in the process of overhauling my cocktail cabinet. I need to redo the CPs, replace the iPac2 with an iPac4 so I can have the screen face the right way, replace the glass top with something a bit thicker, install new artwork, wire the coin door, install a volume knob, install the end frosted plexiglass panels and lights and I have to install and configure MaLa. Whew! That's actually quite a lot of work. Still, mine gets turned on at least once a week and I have a feeling as my kids get older it will be much more frequent than that. :cheers:

I play mame more on my PSP than I do on my new cabinet.
Probably it is due to having more time away from home than I do when I get in.
