RickR Posted September 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 IT IS DONE! Well 90%. All put back together. I've loaded up about 80 MAME ROM's. I know this screen is too small, but it does have some advantages: It's free, it has speakers built in, and it would be thrown out otherwise. I can upgrade to a larger screen later. Anyone have one for sale or donation? It works really nicely. Very good controls. All that's left to do is find a small power strip to screw to the back. Maybe paint it or add decals. I think I know enough now to tackle a full sized cabinet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmjustin6 Posted November 7, 2015 Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 I am really loving the icade you have. What ipad do you have. I might look into getting this set up this coming up black friday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted November 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 No ipad. I'm using a retropi running MAME. Using an Ipad means you are limited to the paltry amount of games they offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted November 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2015 How's this? 13" monitor with tiny bezel. It is much more fun to play now. I'm thinking about some nice side mounted speakers next... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
