So after about a year and a half of amassing whatever NEO GEO MVS carts I can along with a few candies I am maybe having a change of heart in regards to whether to keep collecting legit boards or just go down the soft 15k MAME set up route.
I spoke to a few people who are starting to convince me that its incredibly hard to tell MAME from PCB when it is ran this way due to the correct scaling of image resolutions, PCs now being small form/quiet, cheap as ass, and powerful enough to exhibit little to no slowdown even in the more modern of boards including the CAVE Boards. I.E running both legit board and MAME rom side by side and not being able to tell a difference.
This would enable me to amass more machines over time and just throw MAME into them. I also won't have to become a jigalo to fund being able to play the games I want. (First Degree Peasant)
So I am looking for peoples opinions on this as for the price of less than one legit cave PCB I can get a Jamma compatible 15khz MAME Machine.
