Make sure you post pics of you playing it tomorrow.  :laugh: :cheers:

--- End quote ---
:cheers:

--- End quote ---
Heh, its 9 where i live, so you will see pics a a couple days.
but any reccomendations for a Cheap 19" television for my PS2 cab and a cheap monitor for my supergun? Just to get me started?

--- End quote ---
Define cheap... either way - check out craigslist for the TV

--- End quote ---
cheap? under 200 bucks. 100 if possible. actually, what size would you recommend for fighting games like virtua fighter and tekken?
You know what? Im just gonna walk into best buy tommorow and see what they got.

--- End quote ---
65" Mitsubishi big screen.  Also, craigslist.org really is the best route considering that your parents won't let you have the cabinet, I would assume due to cost, and a new t.v. is about half of that cabinet.  Just by a $20 special and have that part done.  A new t.v. isn't going to provide anything else besides a shiny cardboard box to possibly start your cabinet out of.

--- End quote ---
I just wanted a long ass quote thingy of my very own. Thanks.

--- End quote ---
:cheers:

--- End quote ---
I'll tell you what gets to me.  It's when someone messes up the pyramid! :angry:

--- End quote ---
Pyramid FTW!  :cheers:

--- End quote ---
This is all getting very Ancient Egyptian now.... I don't know! All this talk of Pyramids  :cheers: :applaud: Just thought I'd add to it... Are we going for a record pyramid score here??

--- End quote ---
We are a longggggggggggg way off from the record pyramid, that's for sure  :cheers:

--- End quote ---
this is true...

--- End quote ---
I thought pyramids were illegal.. or is that some kind of scheme??

--- End quote ---
No... you're just confused... It's "Hippies" that are illegal and they're into pyramids as well.

--- End quote ---
I want to take a day off from work and hang out at Best Buy today just to see the kid walk in with his notepad printout and ask someone there for a 25" TV, and X-Arcade sticks, and a VF2 PCB.

--- End quote ---
He must be grounded.  He hasn't posted 20 times yet today and it's already past noon.  I'm worried about him.  What time does BestBuy open?

--- End quote ---
School?

--- End quote ---
I didn't think of that.  I wonder if he's gonna crap when he sees there are 50 new responses?

--- End quote ---
you mean 51 responses....

--- End quote ---
Well, that was just an arbitrary number, but I'll go with it.  Here's to 52! :cheers:

--- End quote ---
eleventy twelve

--- End quote ---
I didn't want get yelled at for breaking the streak  :D
I didn't think the Supergun worked for Med Res games.  Does it?  Or it can, just not on a regular TV?

--- End quote ---
I like the 10,000.00 Pyramid.  It's pretty and messmerizing, scroll up and down quickly.

--- End quote ---
Boobies!

--- End quote ---
HAS ANYONE SEEN MY KEYS?......THEY'RE ON AN ATARI KEYCHAIN....ANYONE?

--- End quote ---
Well, since you put it this way.........................NO!  They must be broken!

--- End quote ---
Just like a Nintendo joystick ....

--- End quote ---
A little FYI kid,
DO NOT BUY THE TV RIGHT NOW.
GUTTED CABS ARE NOT STANDARD, THEY VARY IN SIZE.
YOU NEED THE CAB FIRST SO YOU CAN KNOW HOW BIG THE TV CAN BE.
Also, best buy does not carry tube anymore.  [SNIP]

--- End quote ---
Also, search for jamma boards.  Took me 2 minutes to find this one, http://www.coinopexpress.com/products/

--- End quote ---
No, you can't always get what you want...You can't always get what you want...You can't always get what you want...And if you try sometime you find...You get what you need...

--- End quote ---
This has got to be a joke. Is this guy really this determined, yet so unwilling to search the web for what he wants?
And DON"T BREAK THE PYRAMID!!!!

--- End quote ---
Knowledge is key.... and the unwillingness to obtain such knowledge leaves you with but only one joystick to play with.

--- End quote ---
I love LAMP!

--- End quote ---
Sorry Champ. I think I ate your chocolate squirrel.

--- End quote ---
The matrix 2 and 3 were terrible movies.

--- End quote ---
This thread is akin to walking into a Dodge enthusiast gathering and asking how to build a Charger around an engine, but you don't want to buy a Charger, spend any money, have the engine, have any mechanical ability, tools, or the desire to learn.

--- End quote ---
That sounds about right...  learning how to build these things and actually carrying out a plan is the best part of this hobby to me... sure, playing the games is fun too but topping my Galaga high score doesn't feel half as good as powering up a cab for the first time and having it actually work...

--- End quote ---
Amen to that brother! :cheers:

--- End quote ---
No doubt ..... I rarely play anything I build or repair ...... I just like to tinker.
I let other people get their giggles from playing.
I just want to bring things to life. (insert muahhahahaha voice)

--- End quote ---
WHOA!!! this is a huge ass pyramid!!![SNIP]
So, bye, and thanks for the help.  :cheers: To Arcades.

--- End quote ---
So you are not going to go for the actual PCB anymore? [SNIP]
--- End quote ---
Pyramid people, pyramid....
Ugly cabs can only make a better foundation.

--- End quote ---
Has one of these actually taken up an entire page before?   
Hmmmmmm.........

--- End quote ---
Not that I know of.... But it looks like we might be going for the record here!!
(did some subtle tydying to improve the shape a bit and get rid of long ass comments messing it up LOL  ;D )

--- End quote ---
Excellent idea Fozzy. Much prettier now!

--- End quote ---
SuperShadowRyan: I would definately advise against using an X Arcade for any serious fighting game. Cabinet or not. You need J sticks and convex buttons for good VF action. no joke  :cheers:

--- End quote ---
Actually X-Arcade is not really that bad if you considering running multiple system like pc and console.  But yes, ditch those joystick and button that comes with it, just take the interface.

--- End quote ---
I can only agree with this one... X-Arcade sticks absoultely suck on fighting games. But doing it that way he'd be better off just buying a Keywiz or an IPac. But he's not doing it now anyway, in case he sees something else that he wants his parents to buy him. Go Figure! Teenagers!!

--- End quote ---
My brain hurts.   :dizzy:

--- End quote ---
Anyone else feel like watching the mummy?

--- End quote ---
ROFL I just did....  :laugh2:  :cheers:

--- End quote ---
I used to watch the mummies quite often ..... oh wait... I'm not supposed to talk about that anymore.   ::)

--- End quote ---
roflcopter!

--- End quote ---
Double roflcopter  :laugh2: So come on guys! If we're going for the record Pyramid get posting!

--- End quote ---
So what is a "ROLFcopter"? I could search on the web, but that wouldn't extend the pyramid.

--- End quote ---
ROLFcopter   look.... there goes one now!   ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL it's the noise a helicopter makes....  :laugh2:

This pyramid is shaping up quyite nicely, but you know it looks more like an hourglass.

--- End quote ---
That's because it's a "sexy" pyramid.   ;)

--- End quote ---
It's a Mayan pyramid.

--- End quote ---
Chewbaka...  the wookie

--- End quote ---
There was 3 girls, a blonde, a brunette, and a red head. and they found a pyramid. they read a tablet that said "this is the pyramid of 100 steps. if you get to the top of it, you will get what you've wanted all your life. but be warned, every 5 steps a person will pop out and tell a joke, and if you laugh, you can never try again." so the brunette gets to the 5th step and laughs, so she could never try again. the red head got to the 20th step and laughed, so she could never try again. then the blonde got to the 99th step and laughed. then the guy who was going to tell the joke said "why did you laugh, i didnt tell the joke yet." then the blonde said "i know, i laughed because i just got the first joke!"

--- End quote ---
That is without doubt a ROFLcopter.  :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2:

P.S. Christopher Walken Is Weird

--- End quote ---
I'm getting dizzy scrolling down. :dizzy:  btw: I suspect he's playing Guitar Hero now.

--- End quote ---
Needs more cowbell.

--- End quote ---
He mentioned a free PS2 adapter with the X-arcade.. but isnt that a Ps/2 keyboard for PC and NOT a Sony PS2??  also, I highly doubt Med res games work on a supergun RGB to TV converter...  Should've bought the $250 machine!!!

--- End quote ---
I think we already got past that Brandon.... He's lost interest in doing it at all in case he sees something else that he wants his parents to buy him instead. Two days and the teenager gives up because it's not instant.

--- End quote ---
Is that really shocking? Kids now are all about instant gratification.

--- End quote ---
And we didn't even have to walk to school barefoot, uphill, bothways, in the snow....

--- End quote ---
:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

--- End quote ---
Just needs to be a few pixels wider.

--- End quote ---
I guess I was messing up the symmetry...

--- End quote ---
Nahhh! Looks OK to me...... come on guys, I'm trying to keep this Pyramid going but it's hard work! Lest see a few more posts.

--- End quote ---
I wish there was a quote button at the bottom.

--- End quote ---
Still needs more cowbell.

--- End quote ---
The one problem we have here is that we're eventually going to max out the characters.  At some point, someone should delete a lot of sentences and words.

--- End quote ---
That sounds like a good job for McCoy.  ;D

--- End quote ---
pyramid scheme, ftw!

--- End quote ---
I second that Lew!

--- End quote ---
Well that totally screwed up the pyramid..... SO UNDONE! The whole point is to try and get a pyramid that fills an entire page. You can't Max Out the Characters the software copes with it.

--- End quote ---
P.S. Christopher Walken Is Still Weird

--- End quote ---
This is completely retarded.

--- End quote ---
Utterly retarded I tell you.

--- End quote ---
Wow you all have absolutely no life.

--- End quote ---
And yet you proceed to add more foundation........

--- End quote ---
Utterly and completely retarded and Christopher Walken Is Still Weird.... still Needs more Cowbell.... Roflcopter

--- End quote ---
It looks

--- End quote ---
like we need...

--- End quote ---
25 times as many...

--- End quote ---
posts to make...

--- End quote ---
a whole page!

--- End quote ---


I'm hopping on this bandwagon. Sniff...snifff...I smell derailment...mmmm....good times...good times...
(Dang it, I swear I hit the quote button....)

--- End quote ---

Adding my quote for the day, everyone else try and get at least one a day.  We are talking records here people.

--- End quote ---

My latest quote....."10 days without power sucks" .... but the pyramid grows .... woohoo !!   ;D

--- End quote ---

Hey! I forgot all about this! Back to pyramid building!

--- End quote ---

I can't believe I never saw this before...   haha. 

Whoever thought of this is both extremely sick..  and extremely clever.  :applaud:

--- End quote ---

I wonder at what point this thread will crash? :)

--- End quote ---

My daily add.

--- End quote ---

Had forgotten all about this one.   ;D

--- End quote ---
I take it that this is the one and only spam thread?  I got side tracked along reading this and never figured out if the dude got his cabinet built or not...  Anyone have any Cliff's Notes for it?

--- End quote ---

The Cliff notes version is.... No.

He was a kid who wanted the world, didn't want to pay for it, and didn't know how to start getting it. He also didn't want to look at any other posts on the site for info.

Thank you.  I know personally that it took me about 3 years of research in what I wanted to do and before I pulled the trigger to build...  I swear the kids today only want instant gratification and don't want to have to work for it. 

Today my kids must see the picture I just took of them, with the digital camera, immediately after it is taken... What the hell would they do if we actually had film that had to be developed?

Were we like this to our previous generation as well?

--- End quote ---
Heh, its 9 where i live, so you will see pics a a couple days.
but any reccomendations for a Cheap 19" television for my PS2 cab and a cheap monitor for my supergun? Just to get me started?

--- End quote ---
Define cheap... either way - check out craigslist for the TV

--- End quote ---
cheap? under 200 bucks. 100 if possible. actually, what size would you recommend for fighting games like virtua fighter and tekken?
You know what? Im just gonna walk into best buy tommorow and see what they got.

--- End quote ---
65" Mitsubishi big screen.  Also, craigslist.org really is the best route considering that your parents won't let you have the cabinet, I would assume due to cost, and a new t.v. is about half of that cabinet.  Just by a $20 special and have that part done.  A new t.v. isn't going to provide anything else besides a shiny cardboard box to possibly start your cabinet out of.

--- End quote ---
I just wanted a long ass quote thingy of my very own. Thanks.

--- End quote ---
:cheers:

--- End quote ---
I'll tell you what gets to me.  It's when someone messes up the pyramid! :angry:

--- End quote ---
Pyramid FTW!  :cheers:

--- End quote ---
This is all getting very Ancient Egyptian now.... I don't know! All this talk of Pyramids  :cheers: :applaud: Just thought I'd add to it... Are we going for a record pyramid score here??

--- End quote ---
We are a longggggggggggg way off from the record pyramid, that's for sure  :cheers:

--- End quote ---
this is true...

--- End quote ---
I thought pyramids were illegal.. or is that some kind of scheme??

--- End quote ---
No... you're just confused... It's "Hippies" that are illegal and they're into pyramids as well.

--- End quote ---
I want to take a day off from work and hang out at Best Buy today just to see the kid walk in with his notepad printout and ask someone there for a 25" TV, and X-Arcade sticks, and a VF2 PCB.

--- End quote ---
He must be grounded.  He hasn't posted 20 times yet today and it's already past noon.  I'm worried about him.  What time does BestBuy open?

--- End quote ---
School?

--- End quote ---
I didn't think of that.  I wonder if he's gonna crap when he sees there are 50 new responses?

--- End quote ---
you mean 51 responses....

--- End quote ---
Well, that was just an arbitrary number, but I'll go with it.  Here's to 52! :cheers:

--- End quote ---
eleventy twelve

--- End quote ---
I didn't want get yelled at for breaking the streak  :D
I didn't think the Supergun worked for Med Res games.  Does it?  Or it can, just not on a regular TV?

--- End quote ---
I like the 10,000.00 Pyramid.  It's pretty and messmerizing, scroll up and down quickly.

--- End quote ---
Boobies!

--- End quote ---
HAS ANYONE SEEN MY KEYS?......THEY'RE ON AN ATARI KEYCHAIN....ANYONE?

--- End quote ---
Well, since you put it this way.........................NO!  They must be broken!

--- End quote ---
Just like a Nintendo joystick ....

--- End quote ---
A little FYI kid,
DO NOT BUY THE TV RIGHT NOW.
GUTTED CABS ARE NOT STANDARD, THEY VARY IN SIZE.
YOU NEED THE CAB FIRST SO YOU CAN KNOW HOW BIG THE TV CAN BE.
Also, best buy does not carry tube anymore.  [SNIP]

--- End quote ---
Also, search for jamma boards.  Took me 2 minutes to find this one, http://www.coinopexpress.com/products/

--- End quote ---
No, you can't always get what you want...You can't always get what you want...You can't always get what you want...And if you try sometime you find...You get what you need...

--- End quote ---
This has got to be a joke. Is this guy really this determined, yet so unwilling to search the web for what he wants?
And DON"T BREAK THE PYRAMID!!!!

--- End quote ---
Knowledge is key.... and the unwillingness to obtain such knowledge leaves you with but only one joystick to play with.

--- End quote ---
I love LAMP!

--- End quote ---
Sorry Champ. I think I ate your chocolate squirrel.

The matrix 2 and 3 were terrible movies.

This thread is akin to walking into a Dodge enthusiast gathering and asking how to build a Charger around an engine, but you don't want to buy a Charger, spend any money, have the engine, have any mechanical ability, tools, or the desire to learn.

--- End quote ---
That sounds about right...  learning how to build these things and actually carrying out a plan is the best part of this hobby to me... sure, playing the games is fun too but topping my Galaga high score doesn't feel half as good as powering up a cab for the first time and having it actually work...

--- End quote ---
Amen to that brother! :cheers:

--- End quote ---
No doubt ..... I rarely play anything I build or repair ...... I just like to tinker.
I let other people get their giggles from playing.
I just want to bring things to life. (insert muahhahahaha voice)

--- End quote ---
WHOA!!! this is a huge ass pyramid!!![SNIP]
So, bye, and thanks for the help.  :cheers: To Arcades.

--- End quote ---
So you are not going to go for the actual PCB anymore? [SNIP]
--- End quote ---
Pyramid people, pyramid....
Ugly cabs can only make a better foundation.

--- End quote ---
Has one of these actually taken up an entire page before?   
Hmmmmmm.........

--- End quote ---
Not that I know of.... But it looks like we might be going for the record here!!
(did some subtle tydying to improve the shape a bit and get rid of long ass comments messing it up LOL  ;D )

--- End quote ---
Excellent idea Fozzy. Much prettier now!

--- End quote ---
SuperShadowRyan: I would definately advise against using an X Arcade for any serious fighting game. Cabinet or not. You need J sticks and convex buttons for good VF action. no joke  :cheers:

--- End quote ---
Actually X-Arcade is not really that bad if you considering running multiple system like pc and console.  But yes, ditch those joystick and button that comes with it, just take the interface.

--- End quote ---
I can only agree with this one... X-Arcade sticks absoultely suck on fighting games. But doing it that way he'd be better off just buying a Keywiz or an IPac. But he's not doing it now anyway, in case he sees something else that he wants his parents to buy him. Go Figure! Teenagers!!

--- End quote ---
My brain hurts.   :dizzy:

--- End quote ---
Anyone else feel like watching the mummy?

--- End quote ---
ROFL I just did....  :laugh2:  :cheers:

I used to watch the mummies quite often ..... oh wait... I'm not supposed to talk about that anymore.   ::)

--- End quote ---
roflcopter!

--- End quote ---
Double roflcopter  :laugh2: So come on guys! If we're going for the record Pyramid get posting!

--- End quote ---
So what is a "ROLFcopter"? I could search on the web, but that wouldn't extend the pyramid.

--- End quote ---
ROLFcopter   look.... there goes one now!   ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL it's the noise a helicopter makes....  :laugh2:

This pyramid is shaping up quyite nicely, but you know it looks more like an hourglass.

--- End quote ---
That's because it's a "sexy" pyramid.   ;)

--- End quote ---
It's a Mayan pyramid.

--- End quote ---
Chewbaka...  the wookie

--- End quote ---
There was 3 girls, a blonde, a brunette, and a red head. and they found a pyramid. they read a tablet that said "this is the pyramid of 100 steps. if you get to the top of it, you will get what you've wanted all your life. but be warned, every 5 steps a person will pop out and tell a joke, and if you laugh, you can never try again." so the brunette gets to the 5th step and laughs, so she could never try again. the red head got to the 20th step and laughed, so she could never try again. then the blonde got to the 99th step and laughed. then the guy who was going to tell the joke said "why did you laugh, i didnt tell the joke yet." then the blonde said "i know, i laughed because i just got the first joke!"

--- End quote ---
That is without doubt a ROFLcopter.  :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2:

P.S. Christopher Walken Is Weird

--- End quote ---
I'm getting dizzy scrolling down. :dizzy:  btw: I suspect he's playing Guitar Hero now.

--- End quote ---
Needs more cowbell.

--- End quote ---
He mentioned a free PS2 adapter with the X-arcade.. but isnt that a Ps/2 keyboard for PC and NOT a Sony PS2??  also, I highly doubt Med res games work on a supergun RGB to TV converter...  Should've bought the $250 machine!!!

--- End quote ---
I think we already got past that Brandon.... He's lost interest in doing it at all in case he sees something else that he wants his parents to buy him instead. Two days and the teenager gives up because it's not instant.

--- End quote ---
Is that really shocking? Kids now are all about instant gratification.

--- End quote ---
And we didn't even have to walk to school barefoot, uphill, bothways, in the snow....

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

--- End quote ---
Just needs to be a few pixels wider.

--- End quote ---
I guess I was messing up the symmetry...

--- End quote ---
Nahhh! Looks OK to me...... come on guys, I'm trying to keep this Pyramid going but it's hard work! Lest see a few more posts.

--- End quote ---
I wish there was a quote button at the bottom.

--- End quote ---
Still needs more cowbell.

--- End quote ---
The one problem we have here is that we're eventually going to max out the characters.  At some point, someone should delete a lot of sentences and words.

--- End quote ---
That sounds like a good job for McCoy.  ;D

--- End quote ---
pyramid scheme, ftw!

--- End quote ---
I second that Lew!

--- End quote ---
Well that totally screwed up the pyramid..... SO UNDONE! The whole point is to try and get a pyramid that fills an entire page. You can't Max Out the Characters the software copes with it.

--- End quote ---
P.S. Christopher Walken Is Still Weird

--- End quote ---
This is completely retarded.

--- End quote ---
Utterly retarded I tell you.

--- End quote ---
Wow you all have absolutely no life.

--- End quote ---
And yet you proceed to add more foundation........

--- End quote ---
Utterly and completely retarded and Christopher Walken Is Still Weird.... still Needs more Cowbell.... Roflcopter

--- End quote ---
It looks

--- End quote ---
like we need...

--- End quote ---
25 times as many...

--- End quote ---
posts to make...

--- End quote ---
a whole page!

--- End quote ---


I'm hopping on this bandwagon. Sniff...snifff...I smell derailment...mmmm....good times...good times...
(Dang it, I swear I hit the quote button....)

--- End quote ---

Adding my quote for the day, everyone else try and get at least one a day.  We are talking records here people.

--- End quote ---

My latest quote....."10 days without power sucks" .... but the pyramid grows .... woohoo !!   ;D

--- End quote ---

Hey! I forgot all about this! Back to pyramid building!

--- End quote ---

I can't believe I never saw this before...   haha. 

Whoever thought of this is both extremely sick..  and extremely clever.  :applaud:

--- End quote ---

I wonder at what point this thread will crash? :)

--- End quote ---

My daily add.

--- End quote ---

Had forgotten all about this one.   ;D

--- End quote ---
I take it that this is the one and only spam thread?  I got side tracked along reading this and never figured out if the dude got his cabinet built or not...  Anyone have any Cliff's Notes for it?

--- End quote ---

The Cliff notes version is.... No.

He was a kid who wanted the world, didn't want to pay for it, and didn't know how to start getting it. He also didn't want to look at any other posts on the site for info.

--- End quote ---

Were we like this to our previous generation as well?

--- End quote ---


Cliff notes version.... Yes.

--- End quote ---
Heh, its 9 where i live, so you will see pics a a couple days.
but any reccomendations for a Cheap 19" television for my PS2 cab and a cheap monitor for my supergun? Just to get me started?

--- End quote ---
Define cheap... either way - check out craigslist for the TV

--- End quote ---
cheap? under 200 bucks. 100 if possible. actually, what size would you recommend for fighting games like virtua fighter and tekken?
You know what? Im just gonna walk into best buy tommorow and see what they got.

--- End quote ---
65" Mitsubishi big screen.  Also, craigslist.org really is the best route considering that your parents won't let you have the cabinet, I would assume due to cost, and a new t.v. is about half of that cabinet.  Just by a $20 special and have that part done.  A new t.v. isn't going to provide anything else besides a shiny cardboard box to possibly start your cabinet out of.

--- End quote ---
I just wanted a long ass quote thingy of my very own. Thanks.

--- End quote ---
:cheers:

--- End quote ---
I'll tell you what gets to me.  It's when someone messes up the pyramid! :angry:

--- End quote ---
Pyramid FTW!  :cheers:

--- End quote ---
This is all getting very Ancient Egyptian now.... I don't know! All this talk of Pyramids  :cheers: :applaud: Just thought I'd add to it... Are we going for a record pyramid score here??

--- End quote ---
We are a longggggggggggg way off from the record pyramid, that's for sure  :cheers:

--- End quote ---
this is true...

--- End quote ---
I thought pyramids were illegal.. or is that some kind of scheme??

--- End quote ---
No... you're just confused... It's "Hippies" that are illegal and they're into pyramids as well.

--- End quote ---
I want to take a day off from work and hang out at Best Buy today just to see the kid walk in with his notepad printout and ask someone there for a 25" TV, and X-Arcade sticks, and a VF2 PCB.

--- End quote ---
He must be grounded.  He hasn't posted 20 times yet today and it's already past noon.  I'm worried about him.  What time does BestBuy open?

--- End quote ---
School?

--- End quote ---
I didn't think of that.  I wonder if he's gonna crap when he sees there are 50 new responses?

--- End quote ---
you mean 51 responses....

--- End quote ---
Well, that was just an arbitrary number, but I'll go with it.  Here's to 52! :cheers:

--- End quote ---
eleventy twelve

--- End quote ---
I didn't want get yelled at for breaking the streak  :D
I didn't think the Supergun worked for Med Res games.  Does it?  Or it can, just not on a regular TV?

--- End quote ---
I like the 10,000.00 Pyramid.  It's pretty and messmerizing, scroll up and down quickly.

--- End quote ---
Boobies!

--- End quote ---
HAS ANYONE SEEN MY KEYS?......THEY'RE ON AN ATARI KEYCHAIN....ANYONE?

--- End quote ---
Well, since you put it this way.........................NO!  They must be broken!

--- End quote ---
Just like a Nintendo joystick ....

--- End quote ---
A little FYI kid,
DO NOT BUY THE TV RIGHT NOW.
GUTTED CABS ARE NOT STANDARD, THEY VARY IN SIZE.
YOU NEED THE CAB FIRST SO YOU CAN KNOW HOW BIG THE TV CAN BE.
Also, best buy does not carry tube anymore.  [SNIP]

--- End quote ---
Also, search for jamma boards.  Took me 2 minutes to find this one, http://www.coinopexpress.com/products/

--- End quote ---
No, you can't always get what you want...You can't always get what you want...You can't always get what you want...And if you try sometime you find...You get what you need...

--- End quote ---
This has got to be a joke. Is this guy really this determined, yet so unwilling to search the web for what he wants?
And DON"T BREAK THE PYRAMID!!!!

--- End quote ---
Knowledge is key.... and the unwillingness to obtain such knowledge leaves you with but only one joystick to play with.

--- End quote ---
I love LAMP!

Sorry Champ. I think I ate your chocolate squirrel.

The matrix 2 and 3 were terrible movies.

This thread is akin to walking into a Dodge enthusiast gathering and asking how to build a Charger around an engine, but you don't want to buy a Charger, spend any money, have the engine, have any mechanical ability, tools, or the desire to learn.

--- End quote ---
That sounds about right...  learning how to build these things and actually carrying out a plan is the best part of this hobby to me... sure, playing the games is fun too but topping my Galaga high score doesn't feel half as good as powering up a cab for the first time and having it actually work...

--- End quote ---
Amen to that brother! :cheers:

--- End quote ---
No doubt ..... I rarely play anything I build or repair ...... I just like to tinker.
I let other people get their giggles from playing.
I just want to bring things to life. (insert muahhahahaha voice)

--- End quote ---
WHOA!!! this is a huge ass pyramid!!![SNIP]
So, bye, and thanks for the help.  :cheers: To Arcades.

--- End quote ---
So you are not going to go for the actual PCB anymore? [SNIP]
--- End quote ---
Pyramid people, pyramid....
Ugly cabs can only make a better foundation.

--- End quote ---
Has one of these actually taken up an entire page before?   
Hmmmmmm.........

--- End quote ---
Not that I know of.... But it looks like we might be going for the record here!!
(did some subtle tydying to improve the shape a bit and get rid of long ass comments messing it up LOL  ;D )

--- End quote ---
Excellent idea Fozzy. Much prettier now!

--- End quote ---
SuperShadowRyan: I would definately advise against using an X Arcade for any serious fighting game. Cabinet or not. You need J sticks and convex buttons for good VF action. no joke  :cheers:

--- End quote ---
Actually X-Arcade is not really that bad if you considering running multiple system like pc and console.  But yes, ditch those joystick and button that comes with it, just take the interface.

--- End quote ---
I can only agree with this one... X-Arcade sticks absoultely suck on fighting games. But doing it that way he'd be better off just buying a Keywiz or an IPac. But he's not doing it now anyway, in case he sees something else that he wants his parents to buy him. Go Figure! Teenagers!!

--- End quote ---
My brain hurts.   :dizzy:

--- End quote ---
Anyone else feel like watching the mummy?

--- End quote ---
ROFL I just did....  :laugh2:  :cheers:

I used to watch the mummies quite often ..... oh wait... I'm not supposed to talk about that anymore.   ::)

--- End quote ---
roflcopter!

--- End quote ---
Double roflcopter  :laugh2: So come on guys! If we're going for the record Pyramid get posting!

--- End quote ---
So what is a "ROLFcopter"? I could search on the web, but that wouldn't extend the pyramid.

--- End quote ---
ROLFcopter   look.... there goes one now!   ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL it's the noise a helicopter makes....  :laugh2:

This pyramid is shaping up quyite nicely, but you know it looks more like an hourglass.

--- End quote ---
That's because it's a "sexy" pyramid.   ;)

--- End quote ---
It's a Mayan pyramid.

--- End quote ---
Chewbaka...  the wookie

--- End quote ---
There was 3 girls, a blonde, a brunette, and a red head. and they found a pyramid. they read a tablet that said "this is the pyramid of 100 steps. if you get to the top of it, you will get what you've wanted all your life. but be warned, every 5 steps a person will pop out and tell a joke, and if you laugh, you can never try again." so the brunette gets to the 5th step and laughs, so she could never try again. the red head got to the 20th step and laughed, so she could never try again. then the blonde got to the 99th step and laughed. then the guy who was going to tell the joke said "why did you laugh, i didnt tell the joke yet." then the blonde said "i know, i laughed because i just got the first joke!"

--- End quote ---
That is without doubt a ROFLcopter.  :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2:

P.S. Christopher Walken Is Weird

--- End quote ---
I'm getting dizzy scrolling down. :dizzy:  btw: I suspect he's playing Guitar Hero now.

--- End quote ---
Needs more cowbell.

--- End quote ---
He mentioned a free PS2 adapter with the X-arcade.. but isnt that a Ps/2 keyboard for PC and NOT a Sony PS2??  also, I highly doubt Med res games work on a supergun RGB to TV converter...  Should've bought the $250 machine!!!

--- End quote ---
I think we already got past that Brandon.... He's lost interest in doing it at all in case he sees something else that he wants his parents to buy him instead. Two days and the teenager gives up because it's not instant.

--- End quote ---
Is that really shocking? Kids now are all about instant gratification.

--- End quote ---
And we didn't even have to walk to school barefoot, uphill, bothways, in the snow....

Just needs to be a few pixels wider.

--- End quote ---
I guess I was messing up the symmetry...

--- End quote ---
Nahhh! Looks OK to me...... come on guys, I'm trying to keep this Pyramid going but it's hard work! Lest see a few more posts.

--- End quote ---
I wish there was a quote button at the bottom.

--- End quote ---
Still needs more cowbell.

--- End quote ---
The one problem we have here is that we're eventually going to max out the characters.  At some point, someone should delete a lot of sentences and words.

--- End quote ---
That sounds like a good job for McCoy.  ;D

--- End quote ---
pyramid scheme, ftw!

--- End quote ---
I second that Lew!

--- End quote ---
Well that totally screwed up the pyramid..... SO UNDONE! The whole point is to try and get a pyramid that fills an entire page. You can't Max Out the Characters the software copes with it.

--- End quote ---
P.S. Christopher Walken Is Still Weird

--- End quote ---
This is completely retarded.

--- End quote ---
Utterly retarded I tell you.

--- End quote ---
Wow you all have absolutely no life.

--- End quote ---
And yet you proceed to add more foundation........

--- End quote ---
Utterly and completely retarded and Christopher Walken Is Still Weird.... still Needs more Cowbell.... Roflcopter

--- End quote ---
It looks

--- End quote ---
like we need...

--- End quote ---
25 times as many...

--- End quote ---
posts to make...

--- End quote ---
a whole page!

--- End quote ---


I'm hopping on this bandwagon. Sniff...snifff...I smell derailment...mmmm....good times...good times...
(Dang it, I swear I hit the quote button....)

--- End quote ---

Adding my quote for the day, everyone else try and get at least one a day.  We are talking records here people.

--- End quote ---

My latest quote....."10 days without power sucks" .... but the pyramid grows .... woohoo !!   ;D

--- End quote ---

Hey! I forgot all about this! Back to pyramid building!

--- End quote ---

I can't believe I never saw this before...   haha. 

Whoever thought of this is both extremely sick..  and extremely clever.  :applaud:

--- End quote ---

I wonder at what point this thread will crash? :)

--- End quote ---

My daily add.

--- End quote ---

Had forgotten all about this one.   ;D

--- End quote ---
I take it that this is the one and only spam thread?  I got side tracked along reading this and never figured out if the dude got his cabinet built or not...  Anyone have any Cliff's Notes for it?

--- End quote ---

The Cliff notes version is.... No.

He was a kid who wanted the world, didn't want to pay for it, and didn't know how to start getting it. He also didn't want to look at any other posts on the site for info.

Were we like this to our previous generation as well?

Cliff notes version.... Yes.

Make sure you post pics of you playing it tomorrow.  :laugh: :cheers:

--- End quote ---
Heh, its 9 where i live, so you will see pics a a couple days.
but any reccomendations for a Cheap 19" television for my PS2 cab and a cheap monitor for my supergun? Just to get me started?

--- End quote ---
Define cheap... either way - check out craigslist for the TV

--- End quote ---
cheap? under 200 bucks. 100 if possible. actually, what size would you recommend for fighting games like virtua fighter and tekken?
You know what? Im just gonna walk into best buy tommorow and see what they got.

--- End quote ---
65" Mitsubishi big screen.  Also, craigslist.org really is the best route considering that your parents won't let you have the cabinet, I would assume due to cost, and a new t.v. is about half of that cabinet.  Just by a $20 special and have that part done.  A new t.v. isn't going to provide anything else besides a shiny cardboard box to possibly start your cabinet out of.

I just wanted a long ass quote thingy of my very own. Thanks.

:cheers:

--- End quote ---
I'll tell you what gets to me.  It's when someone messes up the pyramid! :angry:

--- End quote ---
Pyramid FTW!  :cheers:

--- End quote ---
This is all getting very Ancient Egyptian now.... I don't know! All this talk of Pyramids  :cheers: :applaud: Just thought I'd add to it... Are we going for a record pyramid score here??

--- End quote ---
We are a longggggggggggg way off from the record pyramid, that's for sure  :cheers:

--- End quote ---
this is true...

--- End quote ---
I thought pyramids were illegal.. or is that some kind of scheme??

--- End quote ---
No... you're just confused... It's "Hippies" that are illegal and they're into pyramids as well.

--- End quote ---
I want to take a day off from work and hang out at Best Buy today just to see the kid walk in with his notepad printout and ask someone there for a 25" TV, and X-Arcade sticks, and a VF2 PCB.

--- End quote ---
He must be grounded.  He hasn't posted 20 times yet today and it's already past noon.  I'm worried about him.  What time does BestBuy open?

--- End quote ---
School?

--- End quote ---
I didn't think of that.  I wonder if he's gonna crap when he sees there are 50 new responses?

--- End quote ---
you mean 51 responses....

--- End quote ---
Well, that was just an arbitrary number, but I'll go with it.  Here's to 52! :cheers:

--- End quote ---
eleventy twelve

--- End quote ---
I didn't want get yelled at for breaking the streak  :D
I didn't think the Supergun worked for Med Res games.  Does it?  Or it can, just not on a regular TV?

--- End quote ---
I like the 10,000.00 Pyramid.  It's pretty and messmerizing, scroll up and down quickly.

--- End quote ---
Boobies!

--- End quote ---
HAS ANYONE SEEN MY KEYS?......THEY'RE ON AN ATARI KEYCHAIN....ANYONE?

--- End quote ---
Well, since you put it this way.........................NO!  They must be broken!

--- End quote ---
Just like a Nintendo joystick ....

--- End quote ---
A little FYI kid,
DO NOT BUY THE TV RIGHT NOW.
GUTTED CABS ARE NOT STANDARD, THEY VARY IN SIZE.
YOU NEED THE CAB FIRST SO YOU CAN KNOW HOW BIG THE TV CAN BE.
Also, best buy does not carry tube anymore.  [SNIP]

--- End quote ---
Also, search for jamma boards.  Took me 2 minutes to find this one, http://www.coinopexpress.com/products/

--- End quote ---
No, you can't always get what you want...You can't always get what you want...You can't always get what you want...And if you try sometime you find...You get what you need...

--- End quote ---
This has got to be a joke. Is this guy really this determined, yet so unwilling to search the web for what he wants?
And DON"T BREAK THE PYRAMID!!!!

--- End quote ---
Knowledge is key.... and the unwillingness to obtain such knowledge leaves you with but only one joystick to play with.

--- End quote ---
I love LAMP!

Sorry Champ. I think I ate your chocolate squirrel.

The matrix 2 and 3 were terrible movies.

This thread is akin to walking into a Dodge enthusiast gathering and asking how to build a Charger around an engine, but you don't want to buy a Charger, spend any money, have the engine, have any mechanical ability, tools, or the desire to learn.

--- End quote ---
That sounds about right...  learning how to build these things and actually carrying out a plan is the best part of this hobby to me... sure, playing the games is fun too but topping my Galaga high score doesn't feel half as good as powering up a cab for the first time and having it actually work...

--- End quote ---
Amen to that brother! :cheers:

--- End quote ---
No doubt ..... I rarely play anything I build or repair ...... I just like to tinker.
I let other people get their giggles from playing.
I just want to bring things to life. (insert muahhahahaha voice)

--- End quote ---
WHOA!!! this is a huge ass pyramid!!![SNIP]
So, bye, and thanks for the help.  :cheers: To Arcades.

--- End quote ---
So you are not going to go for the actual PCB anymore? [SNIP]
--- End quote ---
Pyramid people, pyramid....
Ugly cabs can only make a better foundation.

--- End quote ---
Has one of these actually taken up an entire page before?   
Hmmmmmm.........

--- End quote ---
Not that I know of.... But it looks like we might be going for the record here!!
(did some subtle tydying to improve the shape a bit and get rid of long ass comments messing it up LOL  ;D )

--- End quote ---
Excellent idea Fozzy. Much prettier now!

--- End quote ---
SuperShadowRyan: I would definately advise against using an X Arcade for any serious fighting game. Cabinet or not. You need J sticks and convex buttons for good VF action. no joke  :cheers:

--- End quote ---
Actually X-Arcade is not really that bad if you considering running multiple system like pc and console.  But yes, ditch those joystick and button that comes with it, just take the interface.

--- End quote ---
I can only agree with this one... X-Arcade sticks absoultely suck on fighting games. But doing it that way he'd be better off just buying a Keywiz or an IPac. But he's not doing it now anyway, in case he sees something else that he wants his parents to buy him. Go Figure! Teenagers!!

--- End quote ---
My brain hurts.   :dizzy:

--- End quote ---
Anyone else feel like watching the mummy?

--- End quote ---
ROFL I just did....  :laugh2:  :cheers:

--- End quote ---
I used to watch the mummies quite often ..... oh wait... I'm not supposed to talk about that anymore.   ::)

--- End quote ---
roflcopter!

--- End quote ---
Double roflcopter  :laugh2: So come on guys! If we're going for the record Pyramid get posting!

--- End quote ---
So what is a "ROLFcopter"? I could search on the web, but that wouldn't extend the pyramid.

--- End quote ---
ROLFcopter   look.... there goes one now!   ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL it's the noise a helicopter makes....  :laugh2:

This pyramid is shaping up quyite nicely, but you know it looks more like an hourglass.

--- End quote ---
That's because it's a "sexy" pyramid.   ;)

--- End quote ---
It's a Mayan pyramid.

--- End quote ---
Chewbaka...  the wookie

--- End quote ---
There was 3 girls, a blonde, a brunette, and a red head. and they found a pyramid. they read a tablet that said "this is the pyramid of 100 steps. if you get to the top of it, you will get what you've wanted all your life. but be warned, every 5 steps a person will pop out and tell a joke, and if you laugh, you can never try again." so the brunette gets to the 5th step and laughs, so she could never try again. the red head got to the 20th step and laughed, so she could never try again. then the blonde got to the 99th step and laughed. then the guy who was going to tell the joke said "why did you laugh, i didnt tell the joke yet." then the blonde said "i know, i laughed because i just got the first joke!"

--- End quote ---
That is without doubt a ROFLcopter.  :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2:

P.S. Christopher Walken Is Weird

--- End quote ---
I'm getting dizzy scrolling down. :dizzy:  btw: I suspect he's playing Guitar Hero now.

--- End quote ---
Needs more cowbell.

--- End quote ---
He mentioned a free PS2 adapter with the X-arcade.. but isnt that a Ps/2 keyboard for PC and NOT a Sony PS2??  also, I highly doubt Med res games work on a supergun RGB to TV converter...  Should've bought the $250 machine!!!

--- End quote ---
I think we already got past that Brandon.... He's lost interest in doing it at all in case he sees something else that he wants his parents to buy him instead. Two days and the teenager gives up because it's not instant.

--- End quote ---
Is that really shocking? Kids now are all about instant gratification.

--- End quote ---
And we didn't even have to walk to school barefoot, uphill, bothways, in the snow....

Just needs to be a few pixels wider.

--- End quote ---
I guess I was messing up the symmetry...

--- End quote ---
Nahhh! Looks OK to me...... come on guys, I'm trying to keep this Pyramid going but it's hard work! Lest see a few more posts.

--- End quote ---
I wish there was a quote button at the bottom.

--- End quote ---
Still needs more cowbell.

--- End quote ---
The one problem we have here is that we're eventually going to max out the characters.  At some point, someone should delete a lot of sentences and words.

--- End quote ---
That sounds like a good job for McCoy.  ;D

--- End quote ---
pyramid scheme, ftw!

--- End quote ---
I second that Lew!

--- End quote ---
Well that totally screwed up the pyramid..... SO UNDONE! The whole point is to try and get a pyramid that fills an entire page. You can't Max Out the Characters the software copes with it.

--- End quote ---
P.S. Christopher Walken Is Still Weird

--- End quote ---
This is completely retarded.

--- End quote ---
Utterly retarded I tell you.

--- End quote ---
Wow you all have absolutely no life.

--- End quote ---
And yet you proceed to add more foundation........

--- End quote ---
Utterly and completely retarded and Christopher Walken Is Still Weird.... still Needs more Cowbell.... Roflcopter

--- End quote ---
It looks

--- End quote ---
like we need...

--- End quote ---
25 times as many...

--- End quote ---
posts to make...

--- End quote ---
a whole page!

--- End quote ---


I'm hopping on this bandwagon. Sniff...snifff...I smell derailment...mmmm....good times...good times...
(Dang it, I swear I hit the quote button....)

--- End quote ---

Adding my quote for the day, everyone else try and get at least one a day.  We are talking records here people.

--- End quote ---

My latest quote....."10 days without power sucks" .... but the pyramid grows .... woohoo !!   ;D

--- End quote ---

Hey! I forgot all about this! Back to pyramid building!

--- End quote ---

I can't believe I never saw this before...   haha. 

Whoever thought of this is both extremely sick..  and extremely clever.  :applaud:

--- End quote ---

I wonder at what point this thread will crash? :)

--- End quote ---

My daily add.

--- End quote ---

Had forgotten all about this one.   ;D

--- End quote ---
I take it that this is the one and only spam thread?  I got side tracked along reading this and never figured out if the dude got his cabinet built or not...  Anyone have any Cliff's Notes for it?

--- End quote ---

The Cliff notes version is.... No.

He was a kid who wanted the world, didn't want to pay for it, and didn't know how to start getting it. He also didn't want to look at any other posts on the site for info.

--- End quote ---

Were we like this to our previous generation as well?

--- End quote ---


Cliff notes version.... Yes.

I've never really appreciated the ability to scroll really fast on my laptop until now.

I've got nothing to say, really. So.... Ecky ecky ecky ecky P'Tang! Zoop-boing mmmzoesm...
