    So I gave it a go I bought everything and just went for it. Without your help I wouldn't have gone this far but to the gurus this might be nothing and a terrible setup but I'm just learning and I was able to get it to display and work. Next step will be a CAB build, Hammy I'm afraid the cab was...

    South Wales. I have searched ebay, FB Marketplace, Gumtree. As I stated before I am new to this and I got to start somewhere. It is most likely down to terminology unless it should come up under Jamma Cabinets, Arcade cabinets etc... which it doesn't for me. I was happy to put an emulator...

    Thanks for the reply both I really do appreciate the support. I been doing more research, say if I did not go down the SUPERGUN route and I go down the proper route for a cabinet I think all I need is a JAMMA wire harness, Arcade switching power supply and a ATX power supply? Thanks

    Thank you, I only keep mentioning LCD because I just feel its lighter, thinner and better quality but I see it's not straight forward as I thought ha.

    Thank you, I was thinking as well I'm assuming I will have two plugs coming from the cabinet if I was going by the setup I suggested above. One from the monitor and one from the supergun?

    Hi, Yes, I was looking at the classics. I was thinking maybe start off with PACMAN and then a fighting game like street fighter or mortal kombat. It's down to what I can get first basically. Are they completely different setups than I suggested above? Any tips and advice is greatly appreciated...

    Thank you so much! What you provided is very useful and yes I agree I do need to do more research. What you said about plug and play is the route I probably will take but I think I will look around here and get more knowledge first. On what you said this is what I got in my head in regards to...

    Thank you for your fast reply and useful information. Has you mentioned there a few types of boards out there. Do you need a type of cabinet for the type of board you buy? Is there particular board that you recommend or they just the same depending on the game you get (hope that makes sense)...

    Hi everyone, I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction or maybe help me with some of my questions. I have got a bar/pub in the UK and I'm looking to have some retro arcade machines in there but looking at suppliers they want 4k for them and I found that slightly expensive and I...
