[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 294273, member: 134"] Okay, so if you've listened to the podcast, you know I have an Arcade 1Up Street Fighter II cab that is on long term (possibly permanent) loan to me. The owner essentially did a RetroPie to the thing, except he used a PC so he could have Steam games on here. He upgraded the buttons and joysticks, added coin door buttons and 2 flipper buttons on each side, and then he loaded it up with all his games he legally owns, whether it be actual arcade ROMS or things for NES, SNES, Genesis, PlayStation, etc, all running off emulators. Well now that I got my hands on it, I kinda hate going into the PlayStation 2 file to open up for instance Namco Museum so I can play Ms. Pac-Man, especially when he has the real ROM for Pac-Man over in the arcade stuff and it loads immediately. Plus the arcade roms play and look better. So yeah, I went and found a MAME site and downloaded a bunch of titles. My deal is, I don't like having a massive selection of titles for everything under the sun, as I'll just wind up playing the same few anyways. That being said, there are a bunch that you sorta need on a multicade setup or your friends will come over (huh, remember that?) and go, "hey, whutabout [I]this[/I] game, how come you don't got that?" Here's where I need you guys to come in. I think I've got most of what I want, but throw some title at me that I'm missing. The deal is, I don't have a track ball or spinner knob, so that eliminates certain games straight off. I'm running an older MAME version (the owner doesn't want me updating it because he's afraid it'll bork the entire setup) and that means some ROMS just plain won't work, or I haven't been able to find the one version that will. Also, I'm not listing the 20+ Neo Geo games he owns, as most of those were never 'classics' in my world.
