Well, the coin door I have WILL work after all! The cabinet used to be a Moon Patrol. I found it inscribed inside the cabinet. Moon Patrol is a Williams cabinet, and the Jungle King uses a Williams coin door, so it’s actually a perfect fit! Yay! The only problem […]
Love it or leave it, it’s my cab. Big thanks to my Dad for letting me use his digital camera. Next plan: strip it down, replace the T-Molding, repaint and power up! Okay, it’s a BIT more complicated than that. I still need to find a coin door. The one […]
Well, it has been a bit since I updated this particular page, hasn’t it? The keyboard I mentioned below worked, but it wasn’t viable for this project. I was looking for a model that had a small encoder hooked to mylar sheets, like this: What a hack. I had to […]
I know, I know, it’s been a while since my last update, but don’t think for a second I haven’t been busy. Picked up two cabinets: a Jungle King, and a game called ‘D J Boy.’ I never heard of that one, but you can find it at the Killer […]

Mini-Update, sort of. I’ve been playing with the emulator VAntAGE. It’s quite cool, I’ve got it running the classics on a 486/66 with little problem. I couldn’t find the ROMs for it, but found a way to convert the MAME ROMs to VAntAGE ROMs. Find them here.

I’ve decided to re-review Advance MAME. There were certain technical aspects that I was not aware of, that after my first review I was made aware of. Find the review here. Tombstones has my profile up. Find it here.
I’ve written a review of Advance Mame, another MAME port. Find it here. I’m now officially a Tombstones burner. They offer full MAME ROMsets to the public – for free (well, at cost). Find the site at tombstones.org.uk Yes, I managed to download all 3000+ MAME ROMs. What a trip […]
I’ve decided to start building again. A local building supply shop was having an anniversary sale, and I was able to pick up a 4′ x 8′ sheet of particle board for $14.35. I’ve got the plans that I found for the Pac-Cabinet, and so quite soon I’m going to […]
