Well, I have wanted a MAME arcade machine for a while, and I finally started building one. It is a bit smaller than the ones in arcades, but it is still tall enough. I am not good with wiring so I bought an X-arcade joystick to put into it. I am almost done with the case, then I have to paint it and set up the computer. I am using a "17 monitor for the display, and I am going to put a plastic sheet over it and cover the monitor so you just see the screen part. So far, it is coming along great. I ordered a marquee and the joystick off ebay, so they should be arriving soon. As for the computer, I am using Maximus Arcade, an interface so you can flip through games on multiple emulators with your joystick. Right now I have MAME, NES, SNES, and Genisis set up. I will put up pictures soon.
