For you who don't know what MAME is, It stands for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator, I have around 5300 arcade games running off a PC that is connected to my 93" HDTV Digital Projector.

And this is the game controller i use to play those games:

Oh by the way, that is an amazing website you put together for your SRSs. They look like they are in other than perfect condition, but I can see that you are bringing them justice. Nice work.

Thanks!, In about 3 weeks they should be all done, Black Lacquer & That African Padauk wood. They should look really good. In June I will be re-doing the Crossovers as well.

I've always wanted to build a full upright MAME cabinet. All I need is the time and money...

How are the cables being run. I wish they came out with wireless.

It's all USB, i have a 6' foot extension usb connected to a 5 to 1 powered hub, it works good. if it really bothered me i can open the SlikStik and put the hub inside.

Sweet!!!, The SlikStik shop is 12 miles from my house. I went there 3 times during the design process of mine. Chris is a really nice guy!

I hear ya!, I would like to have one day a real Ms PacMan & a Tempest. Those are my favorite arcade games.

Sweet!

Anybody have plans to build their own controller or cabinet? I'd be interested to see the schematics, parts list, etc.

It really is much easier to find an old cabinet: clean it up, gut it, cut off the CP and slap on a SlikStik. Put in a TV or pc monitor, get some custom graphics, install the speakers and off you go. Saves a lot of time and aggravation. I've built 4 that way. The first was for me, the other 3 for every good friend that ever played on it with me. I've got about 5 other people wanting me to do the same, but there has to be a limit...

If you really want to build your own, check out www.byoac.com

Oh, and Lasareath, you're not done until you get all the emulators and roms for atari,colecovision,daphne,nintendo,snintendo,n64,s ega,segamastersystem,sega32x and so on. My God, I need to get a life!
