Forgot about this little gem. I reinstalled it last week and played defender, qbert, digdug, joust, time pilot, commando, pac man, Tempest donkey kong, and a whole mess of other games, over the weekend. Anyone else into this thing?

i've got nes, sega master system, snes, genesis, tg-16, gba, neo geo, and a mame on my computer. lots of fun. i played super metroid for 16 hours straight once. that's fun, right?

yes, somewhat - i'm thinking of building an upright cabinent with arcade buttons/controllers to give that authentic feel.
i would like to get some more games, a lot of mine seem to be broken.

john, cant remember the name of the game, but it is like arkanoid or breakout but is a different version. On saturday I played it for 3 hours straight on my laptop. I cant wait to get home today.

About a year ago we used to have mortal kombat tournaments on MAME during lunch hours here at work...what a bunch of nurds we are.
still bust it out occasionally, some of those old games are priceless. must've played gauntlet all day one saturday.

yeah, i'm trying to track down jerry glanville's pigskin footbrawl for the genesis now. i've seen a ton of links for people who have built their own mame cabinets, it's not that hard to do, especially if you've got an older computer taking up space.

I'm starting to think about diffferent layouts for controls - there definitely has to be a 4 player gauntlet layout, but i also want to do a street fighter/mortal kombat layout. if i ever get it built - weekend tournaments until the end of time!

Whats the deal again with the ROM sites? Are they actually Illegal to distribute? If you dont own the cartridge? Are they readily available online or more of a p2p thing? I havent played any since my classic days. Just dodwnloaded the OSX version and forgot how to acquire roms.
Links?
Thanks

I used kazaa to get roms, 56 meg file with 400 roms on it. That is all you need, really.
Street Fighter kicks ass

i lost those when i updated all my shit. i had beat them a bunch of times though. the 2 player coop is the shit, though it ran super slow sometimes, like when there's 50000 rockets on screen.
