Jack Burton:

Can I say all of the above?

I play just about every night, unless I've got it so torn apart tinkering with it that I cannot.  

I wish I could play more newer games.  I'm still trying to get Tekken and Virtua Fighter to run well on my setup.

I can see how you wouldn't enjoy a MAME cabinet, considering 3 of those games require a tricked out "driving" set up, or other complex controls.

You have to be a little obsessed with the older stuff, or games that use standard controls.

mine doesnt get played that much.  when people come to visit, the kids usually want to play, and then after a while an adult or two will wander over and check it out if nobody is using it..i very rarely actually play it though.  my 2 year old wants to play alot, but being 2, can't really do much other than mash buttons and then lose interest.

i really enjoy working on it, changing it, that kind of thing.  lately it is making me angry because the monitor isn't functioning properly. sometimes when i turn it on, the monitor takes several minutes to power up, and when it does, it is just a garbled screen full of colored lines.  the PC is booting just fine, you can hear it boot up and launch games.  i often have to unplug it for a while to get it to work again.  it sucks because i just about have the money i need to get a set of u360s and misc to redo the control panel, but now i dont know if i should do that, or get a new monitor instead.

i find that when i do play games on my cabinet, i play for 15 minutes or so, and then don't touch it for a while.

my cab is in a spare room on the otherside of the house with lots of other crap in it.  Boxes, bins, clothes etc.    So, while I love all the mame, snes, nes, etc games.... I hate playing in that room.   I feel like I'm  a hermit in a cave when I'm playing.
