Well as for the legal issue, it is sort of like the warning from car manufacturers not to imitate the speeding or sharp turns in their commercials but they know people will do it anyway, cat's out of the bag. |

To clear things up, most of my kids are in and out of Juvenal hall for various offenses. Most are addicted to drugs and or have parents that cook meth or sell sex for drugs. In addition, many have been sexually abused. :embarassed: Our school only has 50 kids. These kids have been abused to the extreme, and care little about school. They only work for rewards. Therefore, I attempt to get them through school so that they can get a job and don't become a burden on the system. (trust me when I say its a brutal hard job)We do have several school to work programs that help. :applaud: Long story short, some have very violent tendencies and have social issues along with autistic spectrum disorders. So if i fail, and they get mainstreemed, they will be in classes with your kids. Some think its cruel to keep them out of normal class rooms. ;D Regardless, there is about seven "really" bad kids that love retro video games. The only reward they will work for is time playing street fighter on some arcade web site. Therefore, I promised them that we could build something like I am building at my house. So, some of them are helping me build the cab (its half done) and they are pumped up. If its really a legal issue I will just stick an xbox in a cab an call it good. But I was hoping to expose them to my generations games, and control the amount of time the have on the cab through token rewards. Also, I want them to get schooled by a bad ass street fighter player who is 39 years old. :cheers: So, I get that I should only have admin buttons inside the cab but what about the front end? :dunno |

I'd go with a xx-in-one solution or a NeoGeo cab with 2-6 slots. That way you don't need to worry about any of the MAME and FE junk. It's much more flexible to have the capability to use an FE and configure it how you want, but for your situation...you'd be much better off with a finished hardware solution. Just do what CheffoJeffo said and build a JAMMA cab with one of the above and be done with it. |

i would'nt worry about the legal ramification about it.. no one else around here does. it's highly unlikely that would ever be a problem. good luck on the project. |

I really wouldn't worry about the legal deal either. I know for a fact that there is a bar and also a pizza place not to far from me that run set-ups just like you are talking about and have for several years without issue. I should slip in each one and see if I can figure out what exactly they are running. I was even in a place that sells rec room type stuff selling whole cabs a while back. Not that I agree with all this of course ;) |
