My Mission To MAME - the project blog
« on: December 15, 2008, 05:12:42 pm »
hey guys my name is Mike.
I live in Ajax, Ontario Canada and im new to the coin op thing.
ive been going to local auctions for about a year, i have a 2 slot neo geo, a tekken 3 and now this mame project. i like it, i started with a MARVEL vs. CAPCOM in a dynamo cabinet. im looking (in the future) to do some more projects, perhaps a classic coctail or even a showcase cabinet. at the local auction a showcase goes for as little as $25 !
anyway here is the blog

let me know what you guys think (this is my 1st project)

i still need to wire up player 1 to the IPAC and begin the  testing fase w/o installing all the parts into the cabinet. once thats complete ill mount a 19" crt monitor for now,but im working on  getting a 25/27" RCA tv. that would bring it to more of a stock setting.
possible future projects include a bar top (love that idea) or even cocktail
