Hmm, most of the cabinets aren't that bad, and the guy isn't funny.

 

[Ghengis Cohen]

critiquing MAME cabinets? How big of a nerd can you be.

You're asking this on a gaming forum? :lol

Oh we're all nerds here I realize that...
but Jesus

 

[Kevtones]

Its not a MAME cabinet, but I snagged a GBA SP store demo unit (the ones with the backing and stuff so they can hook up to a wall) and I'm trying to install it beside my toilet next week.

Edit: I want a Pac-Matt bad.

 

[Agent Icebeezy]

The guy reminds me of the guy who used to run drunkgamers.com :lol

 

[Mr_Furious]

Come on people. Most of those cabinets are atrocious. The guy critiquing them maybe a bit raw but he has his moments.

 

[Funky Papa]

Mame cabinets are by default ghetto. Critiquing them for not being professional looking breaks the freaking nerd scale.

 

[Mr_Furious]

which is part of the humor

 

[belgurdo]

That dude desparately wants to be Maddox, and fails spectacularly

Some are pretty ugly, but the guy hasn't had one moment. Not one.

The difference being, drunkgamers.com was actually amusing. This site is not.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

why do so many of them have likea million buttons? WTF is wrong with Mame enthusiasts?

Not every game is TMNT, and some are built with pinball support/lefties/multiple players in mind

 

[DCharlie]

the whole maddox thing - so anyone who critiques something and swears = maddox?

come on now! I'm pretty sure lots of people were doing that _before_ maddox!

 

[Mister Zimbu]

For being someone who nitpicks every little detail and tears apart some decent looking cabinets, his site looks godawful.

 

[emomoonbase]

It's like some twisted, stupid version of monster garage. CRAP GARAGE!

!!!

 

[iapetus]

He's very much like Maddox in that respect.

 

[Jerkface]

He has a point with most of them, these people obviously have the skill to put them together but seem to lack common sense when it comes to controls or useability.

 

[jenov4]

:lol I found his comments funny.

 

[Jive Turkey]

Hmm, most of the cabinets aren't that bad, and the guy isn't funny.

I'll give you that the guy isn't all that funny. All the comedy comes from the HORRID designs. Yes, most of the cabinets ARE that bad. I wanted to make a cabinet for myself someday and I sure hope I'm much more successful than these guys.

 

[fennec fox]

I just wanted to beat up the comment writer by the fourth page.

Oh wait, I'm sorry. Let me add some humor to that sentence.

I just wanted to fucking beat the fucking SHIT out of the FUCKTARD who wrote this HORSE SHIT they call "comments" by the fourth page.

Seriously, great concept, flawed execution.

 

[Jeff-DSA]

That's pretty funny, but the guy thinks the f-word is comedy gold...which it is not.

 

[Y2Kev]

He's very much like Maddox in that respect.

<3

This guy, like Maddox, thinks that people reading pure non-stylized satire is inherently funny. Surprise, little Mr. Swift, it isn't.

 

[FiRez]

Thanks for the link :lol :lol

 

[SKOPE]

why do so many of them have likea million buttons?

Engineers tend to think you need one button per function.

Engineers, especially amateur engineers, have never been known for their design skills.

 

[djtiesto]

The best is, if you get to the end page, he has a little page where he talks about the feedback he receives. And one of them is this:

4. Lamer maddox wannabe!

* Believe it or not, I had never heard of maddox when I made these pages. I have seen his page now, and I must admit. That's pretty fucking uncanny. COINCIDENTAL, but uncanny.

:lol

 

[nexes]

I'm building a MAME cabinet in my engineering design class (high school senior course, not college), and even my cab is coming out better than those. I mean, come on, that some of these people could even design something that terrible is embarassing, let alone the nice little "personal touches" (tape and zip ties, what the hell?)

Also, plywood has gotten horribly expensive. What the hell is up with that?

 

[svenuce]

entertaining.

 

[Mejilan]

So not funny. Cabinets are awful.

 

[ToxicAdam]

The worst part is most of those cabinets look better than mine.


:cry

[icecap]

2 worst ones... fucking pathetic

 

[Tony HoTT]

WTF...
:lol

yeah the second i saw that one I started laughing my ass off.

Most of them just made me feel sorry for whoever made them.

 

[Apharmd Battler]

LMAO!!! :lol

 

[FirstInHell]

These cabinets look like something that seemed like a good idea when they strarted building them, but these people probably gave up halfway through and half-assed it just to get done.

 

[Date of Lies]

WTF LOL? :lol
