Cocktail Mame Cabinet

MAME - Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator, allows children of all ages to enjoy the thrill of playing arcade games. For older children it allows us to relive our youth. It will play games from the earliest classics such as Pong, through to Space Invaders, Galaga and even arcade games into the late 1990's. The list is continually being added to.

All prices are in Australian dollars.

On the left is a standard Australian cocktail cabinet as compared to the US version on the right. The Australian cabinet poses significantly more problems in terms of available internal space.

My objective was to locate and convert a standard cabinet to MAME without modifying the original structure. It turned out to be more of a challenge than I first expected.


The completed unit (including lifiting vinyl). Read on for an overview of how it was done.
