I have the same mp3's sound files (by Hofle) running in the background as ambient noise too.  My front end chooses one randomly at startup.

There are 4 mp3 files total (each about 60 minutes long or so) that sound like you are actually in an arcade in a specific year.
-  1981
- 1983
- 1986
- 1992

Ditto.  It sounds so sweet too and I can pick out the individual sounds and the game it originates from.

I added the "Space Invaders 12" sound as the sound when you pick a game from the list.  It's an explosion or something.  Pretty cool - I have to play with the other sounds...

Since my cab is a Simpsons themed "Moe's Arcade" I have the "Flaming Moe's" theme play at Windows Start up (actually that song is over a minute, so I edited down a 20 second clip). Then, from Wargames I have "Shall we play a game?" at Mamewah startup. I have a few short, non-annoying clips for the sounds within Mamewah.

My grand idea is to eventually setup some ambient noise in the background all the time, of an arcade. Let me explain. There is a program called "Atmosphere Deluxe." It is designed to give you like rain forest sounds, etc. for a calming atmosphere. It is totally customizable, so you can add your own sound effects. It gives you control over randomizing sounds, volume and frequency, etc.

So to set it up, I would load sounds of several games' attract screens, and also gameplay. I could set up like 20 or 30 games' attract screen sounds to play at random intervals, and then those same games some gameplay at longer random intervals. It's difficult to explain, but basically what you end up with is a bunch of arcade games in the background being played alongside some games just sitting there. I could also add some random crowd noises such as indistinct chatter, even the occasional jukebox song.

The software is called Atmosphere Deluxe and it's under £20. http://www.relaxingsoftware.com/atmdeluxehome.htm
