They certainly stand out anyway. Not sure about that testicle textured one on the end though. :P

They for the candy Steve or a bartop or something?

Haven't turned my cab on in a long time now, although any time I walk past it I give the stick a quick flick (;)). Just so it doesn't think it's been forgotten.

They're for...... Dunno
Prob try them on a few things and see how they look. I've a bartop they might look good on, but maybe a waste to use them on that.

Anyone use an LCD for a marquee yet?

The idea has been around for a while but thought the LCD would be cheaper by now.
16:3 ratio for your Mame cab, scrolls through the marquees as you play/select each game.

This is a 19" version.

There are 22" and 25" versions. Doesnt have to be that make/model.

Anyone know where to get one?

We should get a kickstarter to replace every public mame cab's sticks in Ireland, and we as a country, will finally be able to hold down back.

I'm no gun expert but I'm pretty sure thats an AR-15/M16!

Awesome arcade tho'!

I can't see the top handle and the flash hider is wrong, but the hand guard is from a vietnam issue M16. The mag is too long as well.

Dont ask

Easy coin up solution, connect inside your cab to a microswitch.
Mainly for events etc...

What annoys me about that is a legitimate cabinet with a CRT wouldn't actually be much bigger.

don't forget to have sticks where you cant hold down back

In Galway for a few days. Checked out the couple of amusement centres in Salthill. Mostly one arm bandits and redemption games.

Only cabs of note were a monster Time Crisis 4, Doodle Jump and the Sega Codenasters effort Grid which I never knew existed outside of the consoles.

Pretty poor!
