Do you have any actual arcade machines along your MAME machine?

They really needed to put Grandma's House in there, that was a good game.
I've just started my collection with an overpriced Goonies cab that will eventually be repaired and turned into a horizontal 4-way Mame machine.

I dont have pics yet but i have a huge 33" pedistal mame machine and right now a galaxian cab but it has mame for galaxian as my board died for it and a ms pacman and a golden tee fore 2005 cabinet. i like my mame but nothing beats an authentic arcade machine...it just has that smell :cheers: :cheers:

I decided after working on my MAME cab to get a cabinet that could run JAMMA boards too. I'd originally wanted to get or piece together a Shinobi cab, but realized that with a JAMMA adapter for Shinobi I could use any JAMMA-wired cabinet and be able to swap out games occasionally. A side-effect of this is that I can run JAMMA games that are newer/3D and that MAME doesn't handle very well. Mr. Driller 2 stays in there 90% of the time (my wife is addicted to it). The PCB you can see where the door fell off the front of my MAME cab is Soul Edge v2.
I bought the cab from a local distributor for $100. It's a Primal Rage cab that had been converted to Tekken 3. Going down there I expected to pick up a generic 19" dynamo cabinet. The atari cab's a little funkier, but the 25" monitor was a bonus and all the electronics are still on a pull-out drawer behind the control panel. I made a new marquee, but so far I can't find an overlay big enough to cover the giant metal control panel. The kick-panel graphics are on a plastic material very similar to the control panel. I haven't found a good way to get them off without damaging the laminate underneath. It's kind of ugly right now, but it works.
Sometime this year I also plan to buy or piece together a 4-slot neo-geo cab. I think that's about all I have room for.

No way you could play Defender or Stargate without the original cp layout!

I'm with you on this one. I'd love to get a nice 4 or 6 slot Neo cab. It's hard because I really want a pool table in my game room wich really only leaves room for 2, maybe (and that's a huge maybe) 3 cabs plus 1 pinball. Of course my wallet doesn't have room for any of it. :cry:
