Yes, I know it's the same game, but oh well.
Basically this features 300 games in one cabinet. Probably uses some sort of MAME?
I thought I would throw this out here and ask if any of you guys have access to something like this at your arcade. | |

It might not be MAME, is the thing. I've seen a few cabinets that appear to be legitimately licensed and tend to feature older games from two to four companies, max. | |

What we really need is a stand-up arcade cabinet of those awesome 500-in-1 games where it's just the same game of "frog" or "bee" with slightly altered rules.
Frog #187 was the shit. | |

So, it's basically an Ultracade, but way better. Seeing as I don't even think those have 100 games. | |

Your supposed to put your own roms on it.
The cabinet is obviously homebuilt and is running some custom build of mame or another emulator. It actually looks like kawaks in a way. | |

I don't know about this.
Its got a seal from the vendor that could be a new one or an old one from the game the cabinet previously was.
Mame could be in arcades if it was free though (maybe).
I can't make out the sign on it so I can't really say anything about it.

It's just a snip bit of the games that are featured on this machine. I seriously doubt it is something legitimate. | |

Not to mention the banner and artwork are obviously homemade. Lots of people have these things, but there just aren't to many who would try to make money off of it. | |

Ha, thanks for letting me know about that slip-up.
I'm going to update the page now with more games that are on there. I'm also going back to the arcade tomorrow (Wednesday) for some more photos and what not.

Come to think of it, I remember seeing something legit like this being given away on Price is Right. It had games from different companies, but nothing too recent if I remember correctly.

We have one like this here in Toronto. The screen isn't even set at its native resolution. Mars Matrix and Giga Wing looks godawful with its scaling and rippling.
