can’t understand the point of this as it works out far more expensive then buying a modded gb and ever drive, or am i missing something? FPGA with adapters. Runs Gamegear, Gameboy, NeoGeo Pocket, Atari Lynx. i can see the point in fpga for old arcade hardware etc but basically then this is just a p...

yeah, saw that one - huuuuge beast to be sure!

Cant believe the Rotunda at Folkestone used to have loads of these, would have hated to be their arcade tech, having to shift them about all day...

Just looking for info as I am thinking of trying to get hold of a Super Megalo seat or variation for an emulation set-up - are there many of these left in the UK, and if so, prices/sources would be appreciated.

Given my luck with monitors that wouldn't be such a bad idea!

Might seem a strange request but i am having a new kitchen delivered and need to be able to fit a double oven in a cabinet - the oven i have got coming weighs 51kg. I don't have a clue if i am going to be able to lift it in or not on my own. I have previously been able to lift monitors in and out of...

Grant has repaired quite a few monitors for me and is highly recommended across all the forums...

that is very much what i was after but i have just ordered a SNES pad

Thanks for the post, looks like compatibility may be better than i was expecting - not sure about the NES one but i see they do a SNES style which i fancy, will get one ordered!

Loving playing Mame on my Mac, at the moment I use a PS3 Sixasis, which does the job but i don't find it comfortable and there are some issues as i use the left analogue stick for movement as don't like the d-pad buttons. I am quite taken with some of the arcade-stick setups I see but there are a lo...

not sure i would ever be brave enough to rely on what they 'should' have though - best to take precautions

Unplug from the mains, get a large screwdriver with a rubber handle. Get a decent bit of insulated wire and electrical tape the bare end to the metal on the screwdriver Connect the other bare end of the wire to the metal that goes around the tube, it is usually a bit springy where it comes from the ...

i tried using OpenEmu but i had issues where the rooms i was adding were going into the wrong sections, in other words i would add Atari 5200 games and some would end up in 'arcade' etc

Have been messing with sdlmame the last couple of days and am really impressed - sure it is no Groovymame for the purists, but in terms of actually having a quick few games i think it works great. I am running it via qmc2 and find that stuff that i could never get to run full speed on my pc set-ups,...

Have now done a fresh win 7 install, have also got a graphics card that has only one output - dvi - so hopefully that will help

I know it is a big ask but I really need the most basic step by step guide to getting groovymame up and running using win7 and a Radeon hd3450 card on my arcade monitor - I have set similar systems up before using xo a with varying success but this is killing me! Anyone who can help with this would ...

this is my first try at running win 7 but wish i had stuck with the other setup as i don't think i can install xp on the z97 motherboard...
