No cars in the attached garage? WTF all over that batman..... Are the fumes to much or something or is it fear that one might catch fire?

Never give women the details. Is it possible to tell her that Killer Instinct cannot be emulated on current computer hardware?

My wife likes to spend her money at the Gap and on tattoos; I like to spend mine on coin ops. You just have to find something that she likes and compromise. Unless she has no hobbies and is a penny-pincher, then you're screwed! :) Good luck!

I think that's what he was getting at... that he wouldn't be, not for a very long time at least! ;)

Hey look at it this way... if she did do that, well after the divorce you'd have lots of room for cabs!
Seriously though, if you have room for both, try to get her interested in gaming and make sure her favorite game is playable on each one. That way no matter which cab you're playing she can always play her favorite game.
Maybe it's sneaky, but I found that if I make my wife feel included and get her to start liking something then she is much more agreeable to things. The more you make her feel involved the more interested she'll be and even start to like them! :)

Buy it and bring it in dude. Breaking her in is the only way.
If you weather the storm early, it won't be so bad when you want yet another game (4 working and 3 projects here and it all started with a MAME cab).

Get the KI cab, Mame it and put the Space Duel back to what it should be - a Space Duel.
