Anyone have arcade/mame machines built?

I have a 4 player control panel setup for myself (getting ready to rebuild it shortly) and building a bartop for one of my colleagues at work. It's going to be a 2 player panel with trackball.

Man, I am jealous of you guys! I really someday want to build a cabinet lol; I program them all day - might as well play them!

For some reason I treat mine like a sunday hot rod, tweak, polish, tinker, drive it for 30 min on a sunday.

I'm still in the planning and design phase. =\

Although to some that's probably the fun part lol. I'm considering trying a modular design so that I can incorporate a wide selection of control devices.

I bought an old cabinet and just modified the control panel. My next project is to replace the arcade monitor with a larger LCD monitor. Someday I'll build one from scratch... Someday...

I don't know if this is relevant but I built a mini arcade cabinet with a gba cart.

I plan on making a mame controller for my emulationstation soon too. Just have to purchase the materials. Since I'm selling my house I wouldn't want to build a full size arcade cabinet just yet.

Kind of a random question. I'll be the first to admit that I do not share the same appreciation for mame cabinets as many, many others. Having said that, this is due to never having used one before. I don't even have an emulator for one. What are some good recommendations for some games? Make a believer out of me!
