Hey all! So after helping my friend Harry get his Fix it Felix Jr. up and running for the California Extreme show, I got a bit hooked! I am now (with Harry's help) looking to build a Mame machine/Steambox. My ultimate perfect world dream machine will utilize an arcade cabinet running Mame, and an standard joystick controls, an Xbox controller, and a keyboard and mouse. Not sure if this has been done yet, but I want my cabinet to dual function being a Mame and gaming computer. Now all I need is the money and time to make it all happen! Haha. I'll keep you all updated once I start my project. Jonathan www.Omnisonas.com [email protected]

Hi to everyone ;-) Just joined this Forum. I recently finished building one of my child's dream... to own an arcade cabinet at home. Right now it's using the "Games Family" with "2019 in 1" option. I upgraded the CPU from 2.4ghz to 2.8ghz and the Memory from 512mb to 2gb (which is the fastest the Motherboard can accept). Still I would love to be able to play some of the more recent games, and trying to convert my existing Cabinet to a Hyperspin. Here are some photos of my custom build I created based on some existing visuals of the Disc of Tron Cabinet. Let me know if anyone wants the Vector Printing file, I would be happy to share them with anyone interested fo…

Hello everyone, I am trying to update my MAME a new PC. It seems the most logical choice for the frontend is HS, so let's do some research. Cheers

Hi Friends of ancient Games. i came to you, because my friend told me about the huge HS Project. It is complex and very interesting for me and makes me happy. It makes sense, to step up into this forum to get some help and even give some help. The future of ancient gaming is save because of Projects like HS. Thank you all for this. Regards Sensire

Hey everyone, Just recently discovered hyperspin and really looking forward to getting into all of this. My wife is a huge pinball fan, and before discovering the forums here, I was considering buying her a pinball machine for Christmas. Now, I believe that I've changed my tune a bit, and after reading into a lot of the posts here I think I'd like to build my own (and save a few thousand dollars in the process). I haven't come across one yet, but I think that I would like to build a hybrid arcade cabinet/virtual pinball cabinet. I think one large back monitor in place of the standard back monitor/dmd combination would work better for us, and then the standard pinb…

Hi, former It engineer converted in logistics, I am still fond of old retrogames. I started off from old Apple ][, C64, PC XT-AT, Atari ST... and in the same time with old arcade cabinets wherein I used to spend too much money : Galaga, Gyruss & pooyan were the usual ones... Now I have 4 children, 12 arcades cabinets (various states of restoration) and too many PC/Mac machines to count... running with emulators and current games.... Well I do believe Hyperspin is a gorgeous frontend with lot of good ideas... Regards from Belgium Philippe

Hey there, The other day I went over to a friend's place and he showed me the wonders that is Hyperspin. Since I am a retro-game enthusiast I could not resist but join up on the Hyperspin forums and learn more about this amazing technology. Looking forward to eventually joining you all by having my own Hyperspin machine

Hello there, I am new, I just arrived here beacause I need the HYPERSPIN download. I recognize that I have not read any of the topics, and I'll just figure out how to set up my Arcade cabinet. I used to use MALA and INSTANTSHELLER, but Hyperspin seems to be superior, and easier to navigate among the roms. Well, I migth need to write more crap before I am able to download the file, so don't be mad at me if you find more texts like this in the forum. Bye

Hi all, A couple of months back, a coworker got rid of a working arcade monitor he got from a video game company he was working at. It was a test kit. I got it for free and decided to try my hand at making an arcade unit. Its half surprise gift for my girlfriend, half for me. She loves classic games, especially Pac-Man, while I'm more into arcade fighters and Schmups. I'm building a sort of living room table around the television. Anyhow I'm currently in the process of building the arcade cabinet with my friend and at the same time figuring out all this arcade/MAME/hyperspin stuff. Any help is much appreciated! Thanks!

New guy here, 40-something geek and longtime gamer. Recently acquired a non-working Xevious cabinet, took a stab at it and got it working again. That alone ignited the need to play the arcade games I used to play as a teen and have ventured into all things Hyperspin. Looks great and am slowly - but surely - going up the learning curve! Cheers!

Figured I'd make an introductory post and ask a question at the same time! For some reason this forum has taken my facebook band profile avatar that I don't use with anything else and automatically added it here. What kind of email/account syncronization happens when I register here? Also, Hi! I'm Andreas, thanks to all of you for having me here!
