I stumbled across a Popular Science article on how to make your own arc@de game using an old computer and a MAME emul@tor program:

http://www.popsci.com/gear-gadgets/article/2004-06/make-your-own-arcade

I think I will try doing this, though not with a full-cabinet, but something smaller, like the size of an end table or coffee table-sized box at the biggest:

I'm looking for the R0M image file for the original Ms. Pacm@n game. You l33t kids must have a source for this.  Give it up plz.
You should be more like Cantrip.

I don't think WDF likes us posting links to illegal downloads here.

AFAIK posting links to abandonware isn't illegal in Canada, so here you go.

*Deleted*

Despite it not being illegal in Canada, WDF's orders stand first above all else, no warez or pirate links to any copyrighted material. This is not negotiable.

I know of a good illegal Rom/Warez site. It's legal in US so it's legal everywhere else.

It's pretty tricky to navigate around since the English used in the site is pretty crappy IMO, but you should be fine. There's a search box you can use right on the front page that should help.

I think you fail to realize what non negotiable means. Regardless of what argument you come up with my word stands final, no copyrighted material of ANYTHING. This is mainly to keep the site and us as a community legit. If WDF doesn't care then by-o means post away, but unless he says so directly I got no choice but to follow his orders.

Yeah, did the Google thing on this.  Turns out R0M stuff is illegal if you don't own the chip.  While there are R0Ms that are legal because the creator wishes it to be so, I don't own the target R0M I was looking for.  So my apologies to WDF? and Splinter for posting this.

The reason it's illegal is the code is still subject to the original copyright and will be for a long time. So, there you go.  End of project.

Thanks for responding to my request, but to prevent the potential posting of links to illegal stuff, I'm closing this thread.
