Quick boot rom
Havok:
DOS is simple; the hardest part will be finding contemporary hardware that will work with it. Once you have DOS installed and working, you just add a command line in autoexec.bat:
C:\mame\mame.exe ffight
(Assuming you have put mame.exe in a Mame directory on the root of the C: drive) The autoexec.bat file is a text file in the root of C: that you edit and just put that as the last line. When the system boots up, it will just start the game.

Final Fight is a pretty basic game as far as controls go (2 8-way sticks, 3 buttons each player, 2 coin slots...16 inputs total). If you go with DOS, you could get away with an old pentium, PII or PIII CPU based system. Anything PCI should have DOS drivers I would think. You can then go with a keyboard encoder (Key-Wiz or Ipac) and you should be good to go!
If you can't source an older computer, you will likely be better off going with Windows so you can get decent driver support. Check Craigslist and ebay for a system. Good luck! :cheers:

Instant sheller is great, I've also used Quickshell (created by someone here on BYOAC, sorry I forget your name right now)
