What cabinet inspired you to get into this hobby?

protokatie:
Back in c.1989 there was an NES cab in Nintendo Power, that hooked me, but I shelved the idea until more recently. BTW, is Nannuu still around here? He was the one who built that NES cab back in the day (a pic of it even appears briefly in the NP ep of the angry video game nerd).

PacMAMEA

he first tried MAME november 28 2003, and finished building the cab on 31 december! That was very inspirational  :) a lesson for all of us to pull our fingers out!

Loafmeister:
Not really a cabinet but the idea of one and it predates Mame, rather it was the awesome "Retrocade" emulator. The moment I saw that emulator, I said "man, wouldn't that be cool to house this thing in a cab".  The idea stayed in the back of my head, then one day I saw that a lot of people were putting that idea to work along with Mame, and that spark turned into a full on flame.  Now, I can't get enough of this hobby and there's no end in sight.

RayB:
No cab.
I'm THAT cool.
