My First Auction!

Who is doing the auction? If it's Super Auctions, you might find some gutted cabs that would be perfect starting points for a MAME cab. They always seem to have a bunch of gutted or non-working cabs they sell at the end that go pretty cheap. That way you aren't ruining a good working cab :) That's what I did when I got mine. It was a gutted Robotron cab (that had been converted to Final Fight, plus several others in between). All it had left in it was 2 crappy joysticks (which I replaced), and the start and player buttons, plus the Final Fight PCB and marquee, and the old Williams power supply and Robotron glass bezel.

Actually, turns out a friend of mine does work working as a hobby.  He said he might be able to help me build one of my own.  :applaud:  I sure hope it works out, having a homebuilt arcade would be kick ass.


It's just an arcade that went bankrupt, so they're selling everything they have.  I doubt I'll end up with any empty cabinet, but maybe a broken one.
