Two questions...where did you guys get the idea for this and how did you make it? Definately be a kewl thing to keep the kids busy, and maybe even the wife to give me some more CS time!

[Silent_Killer]

IM GOING TO RUSTON/KENNER OR MONROE TO PLAY THEM MACHINES!

[LA_MERC_Spark]

Search the net man... LOTS of info. I actually started playin arround with MAME32 about 6 or 7 years ago... I always wanted to build a machine, but MAME wasn't quite a good as it is now so i kinda gave up on it.. Fast forward a few years and I decided to see what kinda progress had been made.. Well Toby told me that Darren was into MAME and may have some info.. I got in touch with Darren and the rest is history! If you want one of these for your very own you should plan on spending anywhere from $800-1400... If you have an older comp you can save a few bucks.. If you need plans for one I think Darren still has some... If not I still do.. I did not go by the plans... I kinda used them to get a rough idea of the thing.... All the other stuff like buttons, joysticks, spinner, Marquee, ect ect were purchased online from www.happcontrols.com www.ultimarc.com www.oscarcontrols.com ....
