Hi all

[Retro77]

Hi everyone,

I have joined the community as I feel the need to get a cab or 2 back in my life again. I have owned a few over the years and let them all go.

I have been an avid MAME user for years and my love of arcade machines has not left me since I was a kid either playing with a greasy machine in a chippy or a smoke filled pub. Happy days.

Cheers,

Dave

Welcome Dave, Im sure you'll find some cabs on here. Which ones did you own previously and which ones are you after now?

Previous cabs were a standard generic wooden jamma cab. I have no idea of the make. I had another one that was called (I think) a Silverstar Deluxe. It was black and red and I seem to remember the marquee having a mirror effect on it. Lastly, I had a Euro 40 sit down pedestal cab. It was enormous. That was wired for a Naomi 2 board.

I sold them because of a house move (parts of the Euro 40 are still in storage) thinking that an X arcade stick and MAME would suffice but I really miss having a cab.

I initially wanted an Astro or any candy cab. However, I posted this on J+ and I think I have been swayed into going for wooden cabs again (more for my money and more nostalgic). I only want one for now but would like to eventually have 2 (one for each monitor orientation).Retro772017-03-25 22:39:54
