OMFG
DIE
Looks like shit... like yellowish brown baby shit.
I like how that piece of shit CPU takes like 2 eons to boot up.
pretty sure he said "this is my gay room"
Freudian.
Not the first time I've seen it but each time I still watch I only get through maybe 30 seconds due to nerd rage. Horrible thing to do to an MVU-4. What a shit use for it, thing is ruined.
Lazy bastard can't even fix a simple light fixture on the cabinet :loco:
derp derp derp
What a shitload of fuck.
Having the wireless transmitter right next to the mouse is a nice touch. :hammer:
Oh god, this video again. "HEY-YEA!! This is my GAY-Room!"
My favorite is still the one White Knight that got so many comments you have to uncover it. Here it is for you all to laugh at.
Yes, but it's a really cool looking "hunk of plastic" and shouldn't be turned into THAT.Quote:
"God you arcade purist snobs really can get annoying, it's one thing to tear up a classic 1980s Pac-Man cabinet with handpainted artwork, but these are friggin mass manufactured hunks of plastic, they ain't worth shit, there is nothing magical or retro about them, few are game specific and they will never have a value, ever, so what's the big deal about MAMEing it?"
That put the most sour expression on my face.
At least he's somewhat mentally retarded from the sound of it.
That monitor for the hackjob mame machine is probably the worst part.. next to the butchery in the first place.
edit: lol at orochieddies comment posted a year ago "way to fuck a great cabinet with your rom bullshit."
It's a computer in a candy arcade shell....okay.
Looks ugly. Some odd thought in switches and button placement. But, it's his.
What I don't understand, is that it's a stand alone PC that probably isn't connected to any network. What the hell is he using McAfee for?!
Just the fact that there's a keyboard and mouse attached makes me angry enough. I can't watch the rest of the video.
Why, o' why do MAME nitwits insist on putting a keyboard and mouse on their 31337 dedicated MAME PCs?
Fuckin' lol, this retard has antivirus software on a computer that shouldn't even be connected to the internet. And McAfee, no less. :oh_no:
LOL who cares about a candy cab?
The only noteworthy thing about the video is that the guy can't make a half decent MAME box out of it.
Candy cabs are the best ways in the WORLD to play a fighting game.
Nothing exists that compares. Seriously. Mounted control's, sanwa and seimitsu options with ease, solid arm support and comfort. The only time it sucks playing a candy is when you end up playing some guy who's 500 pounds and there's no arm space. I'll argue with anyone. No commercial or underground joystick ever made even compares. Candy's are the purest way to play fighting games, and there is a good reason they are featured at SBO.. Nothing compares. Not HRAP's, not anything. The only thing close is those old mimic's they made of the astro city or such for the jp dreamcast that actually mock the entire panel, and come at a wopping 399$ still.
Those aren't as good either, because you aren't on a chair at the perfect comfort and play height as with candy's.
I remember this video as well. The control panel and monitor still make me cringe.

haha, how ironic. I found this totally by accident right now.
That guy should definitely have consulted with professional nerds before hacking up his own property.
He's made that cab has depressing has his voice.
I almost Tonked my laptop watching that garbage.
In addition to the brutally mutilated candy, there's a KI2 out there that's missing it's CP :crying:
Don't they have Linux Distros that boot right to a MAME interface?
Lazy bastard can't even put in a proper bezel.
This douchebag is a complete idiot. He puts KI decals on a candy and it looks like he MAME'd it WTF
He is really fucking proud of that credits button, isn't he?
I think I just threw up a little in the back of my mouth.
It's like seeing a classic car that's been butchered and ghettoized.
Yeah it belongs to him, but there's a limited number of them, there will never be any more produced, and that limited finite number is now minus one for no good goddammed reason.
Becides, no one needs a cab to fucking play MAME. It would be elitist to say that the only way to play arcade games is on the actual goddammed hardware, but if it's MAME you can play in bed or on the shitter or on the bus on a laptop (or smartphone).
There is no need to destroy an ACTUAL FUCKING ARCADE CABINET to pretend to play arcade games with an emulator, but then again, he apparently thinks Killer Instinct is god's gift to fighting games...
Yeah, the hotshit these days is to have a big ass LCD with remote rotation (for vertical shooters). Hooked up with a nice CP using a viewlx or some shit. I wouldn't mind doing something to emulate modern LCD cabs.
He couldn't fix his Judge Dredd :crying: (this guys videos have been posted before)
Has this idiot never heard of a J-PAC?
Your Honda Civic analogy would work if we were talking about a dynamo cab. Craigslist is littered with cheap cabinets that can be used for MAME projects, why chop up a good candy cab. Mass produced yes, but still rather rare to find locally in many locations, hence people spending a nice sum to have them shipped.
Oh my god.. There are no words to describe the stupidity of this cunt.
I honestly reckon at least 95% of MAME machine owners deserve a bullet.
I don't the need to make a video for everything. The entire world doesn't care about your broken pinball machine or your ruined candy cab with fugly Killer Instinct stickers.
LOL, arcade operators have done worse to far better and far more rare cabinets than this. Eric's right, you guys are going crazy over nothing. There are way better cabinets out there. I had a Xybot cabinet that an op turned into a Neo. Poor thing. Cool cab in its own right, but definitely would have been cooler in its original form. If this was some rare cabinet with original art, like was stated earlier in the thread, that would have sucked... but it was a MVS25 that was as generic as they came. No loss. FYI I bought several of these years ago from $200 to $250 a pop. When it was time to go down to one cab, I couldn't give some of them away. These things have next to zero value on the resale market unless you find someone who really wants one (next to impossible). Might as well turn them into a MAME cab. At least that has a bit of value to home users.
This is almost as bad..

I had a Cute as well. That's actually an original color for them. They also had green, blue, and yellow ones I've seen around. Probably other colors as well. That's obviously been repainted. The CPs were originally white, the weather stripping is missing from the bottom, and I believe only the sides and back should be pink (now that I remember mine), but all and all I don't blame the person who did it. They're rust buckets. Mine had to be completely stripped, rust removed, and repainted. Of course I kept the original pink. How could you not? I had Vampire Saviour in it. It really added to the game. All and all, good cabinet, but pretty abysmal for 2 players.
I watched about 30sec of it before stopping the vid, can't stand the guys voice. Seeing the keyboard+mouse under the control panel made me cringe not to mention the monitor.
