Cheap Arcade Machines?

Post by KingKRool »

Anyone have any links to cheap arcade machines? I'm raising money to buy some but I have no idea which one I'm going to buy. I may buy Centipede or Simpsons, depending on the prices.

You should make your own MAME arcade cabinet. It's much cheaper than buying indivdual cabinets for each game. Also, you can buy arcade quality arcade joysticks and stuff. It's all the rage. Personally, I hope to someday make my own styled like this...

Check out http://www.happcontrols.com if you start thinking about building your own cab. They've got all the hardware you need, short of the game boards...I think the even have monitors and a plan on how to build your own upright cab.
