Even though 3d arcade didn't get my vote, it will always have a place in my arcade cab, even if it's for a "watch this" moment when I show my friends the cab. |

Hyperspin for me. Like a lot of people here who like the process of building their cabs as much as playing the games (or more), I enjoy building themes for this front end. And the default sets for other systems are really nice! Not sure why it gets dubbed as a FE for a limited amount of games. When you boil it down, every FE goes through a list and has features to organize the lists. So if you have 5000 roms, you still have to go through a list whether its Mala, Hyperspin, Maximus, etc. etc. :dunno |

I'm with Billpa on this... HyperSpin is just as good at navigating large game lists as it is with smaller game lists. Of course smaller lists look better because they have wheel images and themes. A full 5000 game MAME list is possible and faster ways of navigating big lists (Alpha navigation) is coming in an upcoming release. Default system themes make games that don't have themes completed look and function quite well. LED Blinky support is in the works as we speak and will be included in the next release and u360/gamepad support is coming shortly as well. I think once we get these couple things incorporated along with quick favorites adding, HyperSpin will be on par with functionality of many current FE's. |

Someone needs to start a poll, with ALL the front ends possible, and have the damn thing stickied so everyone can find the thing instead of having the same question pop up on a monthly basis. ::) Just saying.... |

It couldn't when I tested it. If it can now, then I'd agree it's probably up to part with some of the others. If not, then there's some ways to go still. |
