Title: Anarchy Arcade - customizable 3D virtual arcade on your desktop via Steam
Post by: Ginsu Victim on January 22, 2015, 11:30:34 am

Saw this the other day and had never seen it mentioned here before. Create cabinet / monitor shortcuts to your Steam games, videos, webpages, etc, or you could actually set it up to run your MAME games with a bit of sorcery.

Tried it out and didn't have the time to dig in, but pretty neat nonetheless.

I thought of building something like that for a custom front end last year sometime, but then thought the novelty would wear off really quickly. It is pretty neat however.

Yeah, I couldn't see using it as an actual frontend, but as something to play with (especially with a VR headset), it could be fun.
