What do you want help on?

What system type to get?

Games?

Where to buy?

I'd suggest Windjammers, a MetalSlug game, or a King of Fighters game first.

I just got my mvs cab this week, and those are the titles I'm on the hunt for.

Well, if your 16 with little income I wouldn't recommend AES.

The cost will be just insane.

But seeing as you probably live with your folks, and I doubt they'll want a big ass MVS cab in the house, that's out too.

I'd probably recommend going for some type of Supergun solution.

That way you can hook it up to the tv, AND save the money by getting MVS carts.

then you might want to consider MVS (supergun or whatever, slightly more initial outlay but the games are WAYYYYYYYY cheaper!

MVS man ! cheap and plentiful , if you want a cab get a candy since they have a small footprint.Most of them will fit nicly in any room .

Mine will actually fit in just about any normal sized closet , if I wanted to do it.
Generally speaking a super gun and a candy cabinet cost about the same to get up and running. Aes is neat but just way too costly game wise , if you buy a phantom 1 converter you are at or above the price of a super gun or cabinet.

It just comes down to personal preferance in the end I guess.

Take a look at this:

<a href="http://www.massystems.com/SuperNova.html" target="_blank">http://www.massystems.com/SuperNova.html</A>

This should get you pointed in the right direction.

I'm not an expert on Super Gun/Novas, but it pretty much allows you to play MVS/jamma arcade boards/carts on your tv.

This one I believe you need to mod with an MVS in addition to the main unit to play neo stuff, but I'm pretty sure you can buy some that are neo compatible out-right.

You could also go the route of buidling a Super Gun your self.

Don't feel dumb either, it never hurts to ask questions. :)

Find a cheap home system and get a phantom_1, this way you can go with MVS tiles and have the cool system to boot :)
