Wanted to pop in and properly introduce myself. I'm a long time gamer, but just of the classic consoles and arcade systems. I've never really been a fan of PC gaming. About a year ago my NES, SNES, and Atari collection grew a little to large to manage, so I boxed it up and shoved it into the attic. Missing those games, about a month ago, I did my first Raspberry Pi build so I could play all my favorites again. The research on RetroPie led me here. Since I've got a ton of woodworking experience, I've decided to make the jump and dedicate a PC for emulating and build a full on arcade cabinet for the basement. I fell in love with Hyperspin from the moment I saw i…

Hello to all members from Bimbo in the UK. I love emulation and all things related. I have collected many computers and consoles over the years, most of them bought new going back to those heady days of the launch of the good old ZX81. Once i had bought this dinky little computer, i was totaly hooked and still am at the age of 62. There is just something quite special of reliving those good old days and a lot of those that know me, think that i am mad loving it like i do. But what do they know, maybe they would sooner go down the pub or have a toke. Any way thanks for allowing me to become a member of a wonderful comunity.

First of all I'd like to thank everyone that contributes to this amazing site. I've been able to set up my HS with the help of all of you. My name is joe from Paramount, Ca and im totally obsessed with this front end. Started doing retropie at first but quickly switched over when I discovered HS. It is a little intimidating at first but as soon as you set up your first system, MAME, then it kind of becomes easier. Thank you again to all of you who submit media and resolve issues.

Hello HyperSpin people, I'm Kev aka "Ark" or "Arkenahten". I normally don't post to forums, or use social media for that matter but I feel I should take a moment to just say how nice it is to see a friendly forum free of trolls and full of people ready to help with anything and everything emulator related. I have been playing with emulators for years and would you believe It never occurred to me that it could all be handled by one GUI! So after crawling out from under my rock and looking a little further into it i found HyperSpin and have pretty much fallen down the rabbit hole (with great results!). So yeah, G'day from Australia and thanks to the HyperSpin…

Just a quick hello to all. Getting back into the emulation scene after many years away from it and cannot believe just how far things have come from the first days of mame. Have to send a big thank you to Simply Austin for his tutorials otherwise I may have given up trying to get things up and running long before now, but with the info (and waffle) have muddled thru and am now adding systems without a care in the world Dave.

Hello all together, I am Ronny aka Tourett. I'm looking forward to being here in the forum. Just came here through Simply Austin. Through his tutorials I met Hyperspin. I was baffled when I saw what your frontend can. This is not just a program that is art if you can handle it. I hope I am not too stupid and have great results. So, first enough told, I am happy to be there Greetings to all Tourett aka Ronny

I´m planning to do my own Cab and had to do the decision between a Jamma- and a PC-System. Because the higher flexibility with the PC-Setup, I´ll go with that and in the following with Hyperspin. Unfortunately my time is very limited (traveling a lot) and I like the building and playing more, than to fiddle around with the software. With this in mind, a Jamma-Setup is not completely of the table and I would have the benefit that I can use coins, what I really miss with a PC-Setup (or is there a USB solution?). Status at the moment? Plan is made Most materials are available Hardware available Production has already started (slowly) Software - starts more or le…

Hello everyone! I just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Dave Cramer and I'm 45 years old. I have been playing games for almost 40 years and currently have around 100,000 games on my laptop spread across several different systems. I have been putting off getting and setting up Hyperspin for a long time because it looked so intimidating to set up. But every time I see HyperSpin on Youtube the desire to have it on my computer becomes stronger and stronger. Today I have taken the plunge and am all in. I am watching the videos one by one and following them step by step. It looks so incredible I am at the point now that I don't care how difficult and time consuming it…

Hello to everyone in the Hyperspin community. I'm pretty new to everything, used to play some simple emulators but recently decided to give building an arcade system a try. Already went and tried a few front-ends but everything's led me to try Hyperspin.

Just getting started with building my first arcade machine and I have decided on HyperSpin as the front end. I have lots to learn and look forward to learning a lot here. I have started getting my system together which consists of the following, but I still need to decide on a video card. I will most likely use the on board video for now. Intel i5-6600K Asus Z170-E motherboard 16GB of DDR4 ram 480GB Adata SSD 1TB Toshiba HDD Windows 10 Home See you around the forum. Thanks, Kyle

'ello Hyperspin Forums! I'm BurritoBeans, another dude who's into gaming stuff and has an interest in arcades and arcade emulation. I like to collect video games a lot - you can find me on some other places like AtariAge - and while consoles and computers are cool, arcade stuff has always seemed like a ton of fun but I don't want to pay the money and find the space in my place to fit a variety of machines. So, one project that I have going on with other people in my family is to make a multi-arcade machine that we can just have everything on and play whenever. Yes I have some real hardware that - I've managed to get my hands on a Splatterhosue and Neo Geo MVS boards, …
