So I dunno. In the end, is it worth the crappy 13" tv, thin cheap construction, etc for the same price as putting together a "traditional" MAME cabinet? It's propritary - but Clay did the work so it plays like the real thing.
Sounds are REAL good too once you get some powered speakers hooked up. This is a joke - right? Anyway, you should be able to read the text and see the graphics following the direct links I provided without flash.
If you really want, LMK and I'll put the stuff together for you in a straight html file. Ray, Regarding my purchase I wanted to get something that was ready to go - I did not want to have to buid it from scratch.
At the time I decided I wanted one I did not know much about the internals how they worked etc. But I knew I wanted something - and I did not want to be limited to 1 game. From my research, It was going to cost over 2 grand to get a fully functional cabinet delivered to my door. And these 2 grand units were stripped down or limited in some way. The really nice ones are grand! Also a BIG iussue was space. So while it obviously isn't for everyone - it was right for me.
I would buy it all over again. It's been fun using it, my kids love it, and when I have parties, people stand in line to play it - children and adults. I have yet to hear anyone complain about the quality! And, it's been fun learning about these things and upgrading it.
And it's proved to be tougher unit than I imagined BTW, I caught it on sale at Target last Christmas, talked them down over a scratch that would not show, and got an additional 10 percent off for getting their credit card - my cost out the door was under dollars!
To the others posters, Thanks for the compliments I didn't make this post to wow any of you elite builders here, but to offer some help to anyone else who may be looking for a way to enhance their Midway cab - there is almost nothing on the net about these except critical comments. Have you also modified the Konami version? Ken, No, I have not. The controls look to be identical.
So I think it could be modified just like mine The Midway came with one. Honestly, they did so much other work to run a console thu the midway - I can't figure out why they didn't give you a way to use the controls.
I see they also have a Golden Tee Golf out now. It's in a much different cabinet than the Midway one and more like the real commercial Golden Tee dedicated cabinet. I see the Midway circuit board is inside a box.
Has anyone opened that box to check out the circuit board? I wonder if a person could hack it for R-G-B-sync output to run to a normal arcade monitor? Ken, I've wondered about this myself, I would think it could be done.
They are supposed to sell parts for this machine and I have heard some went out without the cartridge - and they had to send one out to the customer. Is anyone here good at reverse engineering things like this and be willing to do it if we happened upon a spare cartridge? The only "support" I see on Big Electronic Games www.
Even better would be schematics to the gameboard. I'm pretty sure that Clay himself stated somewhere that it's not hackable to get RGB Member Offline Posts: 4 Last login:March 26, , pm. I think I got a good deal and it works great. But I deem it appropriate in this instance, because the original post by VR Junkie gives the reader many tools to accomplish a specific task, and I want to simply augment that wealth of information with one additional piece, because I think that over time, people will continue to find this topic useful for a very specific purpose - to convert one of those old Target Midway cabs, circa , into a MAME machine.
I think there are still tons of them out there, in varying states of neglect and decrepitude, and with a little know-how and elbow grease, these are much better candidates for Maiming than an original dedicated cab which could be restored instead. That said, here is my contribution.
This cabinet uses a simple and seemingly unnecessary PCB as a go-between from the thicker, color-coded control panel wires to two sets of thin, conductor ribbon cables. The original post, while providing a great wiring breakout for the wires connected to the actual controls, did not give a clear mapping to the wires of the ribbon cables, which I feel are better suited for wiring to the keyboard encoder. I know this additional information will be of use to someone in the future.
For now, I just ask that this topic be allowed to quietly slip back into obscurity. It's good to bring back this thread. The links posted by the original poster are now invalid. This thread will help in compiling some information on the machines. Big Electronic Games Ltd. Yes, it does appear that Big Electronic Games is out of business. Perhaps someone will do some more mods to these machines to improve them?
I'm thinking about buying one of these and slapping an LCD into it. Is it the same size as a typical cabinet? How wide are these things? It seems like a nice base to put a loaded hyperspin system in. Found my own answer after posting: Midway Dimensions: 62 x 22 x inches H x W x D approximate , weight approx lbs, 13 inch monitor.
