Now, I'm a HUGE fan of M.A.M.E. (Multi Arcade Machine Emulator), because as great as games are today, they'll never mean as much to me as the old stuff I grew up playing in the 80's.
It was kinda like what the hippies said about Woodstock, if you weren't there, you'll just never understand.
THAT, is what it was like back in the 80's as far as the arcade scene went. The crowds around Pacman, Donkey Kong and Dragon's Lair...lining your quarters up along the top of the machine to let people know you were next.
See, you people today don't understand shit like that, because you have no class!!!
But, before my beloved videogame generation of the 80's, there was the pinball generation of the 60's and 70's.
These guys were always there to tell you how PINBALL required REAL skill...not like that Packy-Kong thing we were all so crazy about.
What the hell did they know anyway?
They were ALSO busy telling you how Molly Hatchet was the greatest band ever.
Well, until now, I got to keep playing my Packy-Kong because of M.A.M.E., but they only got to keep their Molly Hatchet...and who the HELL wants that, right?
But dig this INSANELY BADASS shit right here!!!!
This cat has made a pinball emulator out of two LCD panels.....
Is that SICK or what?
Now the most obvious problem is, who the hell has the cash to waste on THAT SIZE HDTV, to play a pinball emulator?
But I won't let something like that get in the way of it's awesomeness!
