Cabs as coffee tables?
ChadTower:
What I'm envisioning is sitting on the floor with your legs under the table and back against the couch while playing it. The controls would have to be low in that situation.

I was thinking you'd just sit on the counch and have the controls set up like a cocktail machine either the glass cut for them to be exposed or under the glass with the LCD monitor angled just slightly. You can play a game from pretty much any angle without much fading with newer LCDs.
You could do a monster garage type table where it looks like a stock coffee table, but by moving a board here and there you get a mame table.
ChadTower:
I'd actually want as few moving parts as possible... I'll keep thinking it out, it's a project that's quite a ways off anyway.

Instead of building a coffee table MAME, it might be easier to just move her to another room ;D
Either that, or set up the parental controls on the TV to block all those girly channels and use a code only you know ;)
Problem solved.
