ScubaMichael Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 So I am going to use other computer parts to start to build a MAME Arcade cabinet. Is anyone in here experienced at getting all the programs? If so, where is a good place to start? What should I know? IDEAS??? I plan to use a cabinet I already have a JAMMA board in and convert it. So far I have: Intel motherboard i7 processor 16GB RAM 1GB Video card 240 GB SSD 650 GB Serial ATA drive Thanks, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTPPC Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I7 is way more power than needed for anything other than NFL Blitz and a couple 3d fighting games. If you're lazy google "ROM burning service". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B2K24 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 what does pleasuredome provide? Hard to tell without a login. They can be rather difficult to deal with if some rules are not followed. I've seen them abuse unsuspecting users before. A better solution might be to visit the internet archive and search MAME there https://archive.org/details/MAME_0.151_ROMs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A better solution might be to visit the internet archive and search MAME there https://archive.org/details/MAME_0.151_ROMs If you actually take time and read their directions it's quite simple. The trick to not getting shitlisted is stated on their directions. Download the ROM sets that say "FREE". These torrents do not count against your ratio for downloading, but they do help your ratio if you seed/share them. Use these to build up your ratio credit and then download sets that are not free and seed/share them to help build your ratio back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider oooPLAYER1ooo Posted January 19, 2014 Content Provider Share Posted January 19, 2014 Yeah once you understand there rules its all good Other than lame you just have to share whatever you download Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B2K24 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Some just want a complete romset and then to be done with it without any kind of hassle. The IA is a great resource for that without worrying about probations, paying back bandwidth, etc.etc.etc. For the relaxed user it's a great resource if you don't mind extracting everything from 1 zip.
