Title: VIDEO OF MY MAME CAB'S
Post by: MameMaster! on October 28, 2003, 04:46:14 pm

Greets all!

I have a couple of short mpg videos (low res from my Sony 3.2 megapixel photo camera) that show off my cabs.

I wonder if it would be fun to some how share quick 30 second videos of folks cabs/mame rooms in action? I know I would love to see the 1 Up cab in particular in "action".

Any suggestions on how to best do this?... any interest?

Should it be/could it be a new topic? (is there even enough server space for such a thing?).

I was a little slow here at work today and the thought popped into my dopey head as something that might be fun to share.

The MameMaster!  ;D

Sounds like a cool idea, I would definately be interested in showing off my cab on vid ( once it's finished that is, lol ).

I'd like to see if people look as crazy as me when they're playing robotron or 720. It looks like my brain has lost all control over my body.  ;D

Is it just me or is anything above level 4 on Robotron just completely insane? I'm having some problems i.e. I've NEVER got past the 5th wave.

Yep, that would be the very moment my wife calls the funny farm.  

"Honey, hold the camera and film over my shoulder as I play Robotron so I can send the video to a bunch of folks on this message board so they can see how well I play..."

"Honey, who you calling?"

"honey?...."

Hey I have an idea, get a couple of manequins and lean them up against the side panels of the game so its like being in the arcade with guys hanging around watching you play and trying to swipe your quarters. lol ;D

HEY!....are you married to my wife also?.....I'm pretty sure that would be her reaction as well.

Thank goodness there's such a thing as a camera tripod (so we can close the door and video tape our shame in privacy).

PS- To be honest I don't want to see you guys...I just want to see the machine in action!
