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.

pretty sure he said "this is my gay room"

Freudian.

Listened to him a couple times.. he definitely says "This is my gay room" and I'm in total agreement. What a POS MAME machine.

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.

"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?"

Yes, but it's a really cool looking "hunk of plastic" and shouldn't be turned into THAT.

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."

This video again... I remember the first time we saw it. For some reason, I think he's a high functioning autistic. Also, isn't this is the guy that burned down that Hang-On cab as well?

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?

Different guy, I checked the videos. I think that was a couple of drunks that lit the Hang-On machine.

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.

That guy should definitely have consulted with professional nerds before hacking up his own property.

Agreed. Some woodies have good options, too.

The Dynamo HS-5, for example, has a great metal control panel that can use Sanwa JLW's without modification. For JLFs or 30mm buttons.... you'll need to modify it a tiny bit.

Don't they have Linux Distros that boot right to a MAME interface?


Lazy bastard can't even put in a proper bezel.
