i bought one of those from my friend for $50.  it worked okay, but i didnt like the games on it, so i pissed on it, buried it upside down, dug it back up after 2 years, and put a 4 player control panel on it with Street Figther art painted with my feet.

.............. ;D

I can imagine you'd die from having hideous furniture like that in your room yes.

From the article:

The actual computer inside is a Russian business computer - a rack based system, with an array of plug-in cards and chips marked in Cyrillic.

Quote

"The display is quite interesting because if you lift the lid it's just an East German TV set."

Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the very first MAME cab.

Poly Play is in MAME already.   In fact, it is a legal free ROM that you can download from the MAME site.   The copyright owner was the former east germany, and it collapsed years ago, which means that its copyrights are public domain.

In fact, it is included with AdvaceCD downloads.
