I'm sorry, but this belongs on CrapMAME
"There are some truths in life that some people are not willing to accept; All babies are not cute, all old ladies are not sweet, not every man's wife is beautiful, and YOUR MAME CABINET PROBABLY SUCKS."

Yeah, it's not pretty. Looks a bit too much like a washer-dyer combo, if you ask me. On the other hand, it was cheap, it actually works and it's sturdy enough to stand up to my kids.

i linda like it - it's made from all the stuff you had (it's standing up to kids, as you mentioned) and it looks like the old 3d hologram game from the 80s!

//(it's standing up to kids, as you mentioned)//
Well, it did recently take a bit of punishment from a two-year-old armed with crayons. Fortunately, it's reasonably washable.
