    Quoted from grantopia:

    I have all dedicated cabs but I know hyperspin can be a nightmare to configure. Depending how many games you want (I mean how many of those 3000 are you REALLY playing) ...

    Yeah that was the issue with mine...You want MORE!!! but then the issue is you have way more than you need. Then people come over to play and you're constantyl going out to the main menu and searching through endless games and blah blah it juts becomes really complicated.

    Quoted from grantopia:

    I realized this when a buddy was telling me about the hours and hours he spent setting up 3DO and Atari Jaguar games on his hyperspin.

    Too true. And for me it's just crazy with that many ROMs...and then you have the list that reads them and actually shows them in HS. So I really only wanted the games with attract animation in HS so I open this list using C++ that I had to learn what was going on and then edit this list of 400 pages etc etc I mean what a nightmare. And then you gotta get a spinner right? I mean of course you need both a trackball and a spinner etc etc...it never ends.

    EDIT: Actually it did end i ripped the thing apart and replaced it with a Pin

    Quoted from RonSS:

    Heck, I'd suggest a cocktail table set up, but that's me.

    Yeah the issue there is they csn take up a little more space...at least more awkwardly having people on opposite sides. But damn i;ve always wanted a cocktail machine.

    Quoted from RonSS:

    I think it's a great place to put drinks while playing MAME or pinball

    For sure...but alas until I can extend my basement I'm out of free space.

    Quoted from Oldgoat:

    Bite your tongue...It's the Wake Forest mighty Demon Deacon!

    I knew what it was. Well I mean I knew it was the Demon Deacon I still don;t know what the hell it's supposed to mean But I've always liked the look.

    (Seeing your location, be thankful it's not Yosef...

    I was on a raft in a lake on probably beer 15 listening to App state beat UofM and it was one of the best moments of my life. Followed by antother 10 years of great seasons
