Couldn't agree more. The building part is all part of the fun. It's in the title.

And the one after that. And the one after that.    :lol

Yeah...when I told my wife I wanted to build one of these, her response was "Great, you're going to have an arcade in the basement aren't you....".  No honey, really, just one...I was wrong.  I will most likely stop at 4 plus a pinball machine...

I started with one MAME cab, then two... now I'm up to 10 games, 8 of which are dedicated.

I was up to 10, if you count the little helicopter game. Now I'm down to 7. I'm in reverse.

Yeah, I can't see going in reverse, but I'm well past the days of "Oh, cool, I can play 50000 games on one machine!!!" because I've learned that less is more. I've come to discover that I'd rather have one game that plays one game perfectly than one machine that half-asses my favorites.  :cheers:
