    props to the setup. My fav game of all time. FWIW, I built one of these a while back.. I also built it for SF2. I had to use a fix to allow both controllers to be used on the steam version. (since I am using an Ultimarc keyboard controller and SFIV didn't support two keyboards) I actually started from scratch instead of using an older cab. (since I wanted a bartop) Too bad I realized I don't play games as much as I used too..

    Here's a link to my build if you want to take a look.

    I also bought USB retro controllers since who likes to play console games with a joystick? heh

    Damn! That is a nice rig for MAME.

    That is a perfect piece for a pool / beer pong room.

    I'm a mod over @ hardocp.com forums, you should see some of the stuff those guys build. insane. funny thing is I just ripped out the old mb yesterday to upgrade it to a newer mb/cpu.. then I see this thread. heh I have a mini-itx board I plan on using along with a spare i5 I had lying around.. I also picked up a 500gb SSD from amazon to replace the 500gb hd. The final upgrade will be some guns. If I had to do it over again... I'd make mine a little wider for a trackball and slant the monitor back more. (I slam the trackball when playing golden tee and the monitor would get smashed)

    What are you using as the front end? I use Maximus Arcade (even though it's not supported by the author anymore)

    I love going back and playing the older revisions of SF2.. esp revs where you could get Guile glitch and freeze in the air, etc.

    Yeah I'm using http://www.gameex.com/ for my front end. It's constantly updated and patched. Definitely worth the money. Also I agree with the old SF2 games. I love the glitches as well (hence my handcuffs image ;) ) Love the magic throw :D
