Heres my old commandos cocktail arcade machine which i converted to M.A.M.E & its running Galaxian turbo
Going to build a new project arcade machine next year, i also had a stand up one which i converted a few years back, markee off here bought it off me and wont part with it, lol
Sweet, man... Never owned an arcade cabinet, mate, but not through lack of trying. My idea of a home arcade, with cabinets right down the hallway, isn't the same idea as my wife's, lol!!
I remember in about 1991 Bright Spot in New Brighton chucked out their Star Wars cabinet (the sit down one), I remember seeing it in a skip outside. My mate nicked the speaker out of it.
I've managed to get my hands on a Neo Geo AES with Metal Slug 1 & 2, King Of Fighters and Neo Turf Golf. the cartridges used for this thing are HUGE (about 4 times the size of a SNES Cart, twice the thickness of the NES Cart) and they come with huge prices for the games (from £300 up to £1000) so with some documentation from MAME and MESS i'm attempting to grab a cheap Neo Geo Cart, write up a ROM Loader in Z80 BASIC (since it uses both a Zilog Z80 And a Motorola 68000 as it's main CPU) then flash that program onto a new ROM Chip, and then modify the cart itself to allow usage of Flash Media and a USB Port to stream games directly from a Storage device or a PC.
I could do with a dedicated emulator machine, portable would be best there is a machine that runs at least mame and snes but i cant remember what its called. Phone hasnt proved ideal for this.
