UK Member needs some help
« on: June 26, 2008, 10:05:03 pm »
Hi guys,

I am glad I found this forum. I like the idea of building-buying an arcade box, but I know nothing about them. I have been reading around in the forum, but I need a basic start.
People talk about PCs, etc. Is there a guide anywhere in the forum?
What exactly is inside an arcade box, and is it possible to build one that contains a lot of games?

Thanks in advance,
Doberman

Hi, There are guides everywhere m8,just do a bit of searching for MAME.

I managed to get a cabinet,Rip the insides out.Build a PC.Got a new Control panel made (This is what the controls bolt on to I.E. CP.)   And i also got a 27" CRT and wacked that in there.

Im in the UK also,And there are plenty of ways of getting this done bud.

Games = Thousands lol.

And they are JUST like the real thing
