Title: Another Cab Naming Thread - acronym ideas
Post by: Mark70 on October 02, 2005, 09:53:53 pm

Ok,

So I lay awake early one morning before the alarm went off and I found myself starting to think of names for my MAME cabinet to be.  I think I'm favouring the acronym route and this is what I have:

A.C.E. = Arcade & Console Emulator

M.A.C.E = Mame Arcade & Console Emulator

C.A.G.E = Console & Arcade Game Emulator

A.G.E. = Arcade Game Emulator + Sigma - The symbol in greek... after this definition

Sigma (12-12; 200) "Phoibos [Apollo] speaks plainly {Saph

I think cage could be good, but call it 'The CAGE',

I can see the marquee being done with a small 'The' in the top left corner and big blocky CAGE lettering taking up the rest of the marquee, I also think is quite good in that the machine will trap you into playing it for hours and hours on end so its kind of a play on words in that way as well.

I guess another big factor is how your going to theme the cab, is it going to be you own design or a restore of an original cab?

Good luck

Cheers
