Well, my vision of about five years ago has made it to a working machine. A MAME (Multi Arcade Machine Emulator) machine is one that will play all the classic arcade games as long as you have the ROM files. (You can click on the pics below for larger size ones.)
Here, you see my friend just after we powered it up for the first time, after mounting the monitor to the top half 
of the cabinet and installing it on the bottom half. Then, the computer got installed, and for this first test, we didn’t even have the controller screwed down. Here, we have just gone into the Robotron 2084 game for a first run. At this point, we still had to map the controllers for a true experience. This includes the trackball for games like Missile Command, Arkanoid, Centiped, etc. My friend opted to not install a coin door in the hole in the front, but insted decided on a blank panel…. This Arcade cabinet has all the roms that you might encounter in a true video arcade: Space Invaders, Mario Brothers, Asteroids, and the list goes on and on. 
Here, you can see his girlfriend taking Ms Pac Man out for a spin. This arcade cabinet seems to be a big hit. I put together an Elite 8200 USDT computer with Windows 10 Pro on it, along with Maximus Arcade front end for MAME. The computer boots directly into the front end, and you only need to select the game you want to play. My friend picked up the cabinet and tankstick controller from recroommasters. You can just google it. He also had to pick up a 32″ vesa mount display. (I recommended a VGA input, but he could have used the native DP++, Display Port, or adapt that to HDMI, but a VGA input is easiest.) There was a bit of initial angst, and my friend noticed the display would occasionally flip upside down, so I just had to disable the intel video driver’s hot keys, as the tankstick emulates keyboard buttons, etc, and was causing this. Turning the hot keys off fixed that. Another bit of startup tweaking was the trackball wasn’t being picked up, so I had to go into the mame.ini file and set MOUSE and MULTIPLEMOUSE from 0 to 1. If you don’t want to go thru the time and expense (not cheap) of setting a cabinet like this up, for the price of a computer, ram and hard drive, you could actually connect to your wide screen TV set, and play the classic arcade games right from your couch. 🙂
