I am not sure how to describe it, but the first time I played it I barfed from motion sickness.

Geez... $355 at Wal-Mart and $99 at Target?
Why can't we ever get anything like that up here in Canada. It doesn't snow that much.

Says the guy who is closer to John's Jukes and the TimeWarp Warehouse than any of us ... I would trade places with you in a heartbeat ... or I would have a few months ago when John was clearing that warehouse out.
More on topic, I would welcome the opportunity to pick one of these up cheap and hack it -- people may complain about the cabinet, monitor and controls, but all of those are easily fixed -- I can see an interesting project arising from one of these (bartop a la Jakk's hack, perhaps?)
For those who subscribe to GameRoom, check April's issue for the second part of the interview with Clay Cowgill, who is a multigame legend and worked on the guts of these things.
Cheers

That is how I feel. For $100, it is worth it alone for the brains of the unit. It simply plugs into the tv with A/V plugs. How easy can a hack get? Plus, they are legal.
