These are some of the other 'aussie' style MAME projects
out there. More properly they are 'japanese' style and appeared in
Europe and the US too. Us aussies call them aussie because we never saw
any other type! In fact several of these examples aren't even in
Australia. But i'm glad that was the only type we had because i think
these look great. I've been in love with my MAME cabinet since i built
it and so here is a chance for others to feel the love. There is
absolutely
no better way to play Space Invaders, Frogger or Galaga than sitting at
a cocktail cab (",)

The
cocktail lounge (this is the guy that inspired me. mine is very similar
to his. and obviously inspired the name of my page too!)
An excellent Hankin
cab, actually about 6 of them!
