Title: 2nd bartop, 8th mame machine (I think...)
Post by: menace on May 26, 2011, 01:55:21 pm

SO I've had some time off work and decided to revisit one of my earlier hobbies--namely this one--its probably been 2 or 3 years since I even looked at arcade stuff.  Now I start going through the site again and there are some really fantastic builds going on...  

This isn't one of them LOL

This is a simple bartop machine running mame .72 (I like the classics) with a 17" LCD and Mamewah--what can I say I go with what I know--the artwork is generic but its a neat little machine that has dual player support through a hacked saturn gamestick that was converted to usb.  If you want two players--plug in the usb in the side and away you go.

My next project is going to be much more interesting..

Welcome back to the hobby!  :cheers:

While your bartop might not be the talk of the boards, it looks like it definitely gets the job done! I love the plug-in player 2!  :cheers:

I can't wait to see what you have in store next!
