VectorGamer Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 This is illegal, yes? The eBay link says "the item was removed." http://www.ubergizmo.com/15/archives/2010/06/asus_eee_pc_netbook_turned_into_an_arcade_machine_up_for_auction.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VectorGamer Posted June 12, 2010 Author Share Posted June 12, 2010 Fuck Ebay, that is a damn good idea. It is but you can't just sell MAME and ROMs and package it inside of a cabinet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+poobah Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Seems sorta slip-shod. I mean it LOOKS nice, but stuff is velcro-ed or not even mounted (ipac board). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricDeLee Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 It is pretty cool. I keep thinking about doing one for pinball... but I'm not sure I want to get into that! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the.golden.ax Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Why can't someone just make little shells for cocktails and mini-uprights and sell them gut free? Seems like there would be a market for those, and then the end user can add the machine. (Think iPad iArcade April fools idea). AX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AX I'm thinking that the target audience would want a monitor and control panel to go with it. With that, you may as well find a way to legally include the computer, OS and MAME software to go with it. Maybe you put some of those Exidy public domain ROMs in there to demo.
