You want a cabinet or just want something to play the old games on hooked to a TV or monitor?


If you want the latter, there are options like a Raspberry Pi running certain emulators or running MAME on your PC. You can also buy something like the Atari Gamestation Pro that allows you to import tons of games.


If you want a cabinet, options include buying certain Arcade1Up machines which are hackable into becoming multi-game systems, buying something like a Pandora’s Box based cabinet, or buying a generic cabinet and putting your own PC setup into it to run the games.



There are companies out there which will sell and ship full cabinets but I can’t vouch for any of those. One such Pandora’s Box style machine is at the GameWare store on College Dr in Baton Rouge and has thousands of games on it and ran well when I played it.

If you are looking for an emulator machine with tons of arcade and classic system games look on Etsy. Here is a link to a seller I've purchased from and gotten quality systems:

Lots of options and price ranges.

Which one did you get? Have you had success adding more roms than the ones it comes with?

It was a modded PS1 classic he did a few years back. I dont mess with adding roms. I used to mess with emulators and roms on old phones and PC but ever since EMUParadise went down years ago I've been hesitant to get back into it on my own. He gives good support so I would just contact him
