Title: Midwest hell-o
Post by: jlampc on March 06, 2014, 11:06:36 am
I'm a Mame Guy From Columbus... I really wish I had room for dedicated cabs, but I only have a 2 bedroom apartment and a girlfriend. If the 2 machines I currently have weren't here before her.. They wouldnt be here at all. She friggin hates them. One of them is a converted Mortal Kombat that was running a messed up MK4 board. The other cabinet is a converted Virtual-on sit down cab. It came to me gutted with a broken CP and a 29 inch Nanao monitor. It was rebuilt to play my favorite games, so the CP  has a pistol grip joystick from the Virtual-on, a home made spinner made from a HD bearing, and a Trackball. It was made to play Tron, Tempest and centipede/millipede. Its good for like Cabal too.

So I just wanted to say Hi.
