Building a MAME arcade cabinet...

Qix + hot girls (the girls are pretty good looking man, but yea the pictures are, well... explicit as hell) = good game. The only thing is I cant really figure out what makes that bar on the top move up and down, but whatever.

I think the bar goes to the red side when you take too much in one go.

yes i know

Gals Panic S is the best pornographic Qix clone in MAME.

Ah, this is why I came back to TNL. Videogame experts, indeed.

For those using MAME on a PC, what kind of controller would you recommend? Last time I emu'ed was with a keyboard and it's just not the same.

Whatever you want, really.

PS2 adapters, Xbox adapters, just pick one up. I used a Dual Shock for a while, myself.

Standard Microsoft Sidewinder pad isn't bad for the price if you don't want to pay the money for an adapter. If you are looking at an adapter, a second gen Saturn pad is probably the way to go.

SF arcade stick + PS2/USB adapter. Gotta play these things as natural as possible.

If you want porn for porn's sake they all suck. But Gals Panic S is actually a good game.

Dual Shock or something similar, simply because I find it to be the most versatile design. A trackball is a must too for a lot of games (not only trackball games, but also dial-based games like Tempest).

Hanaho makes some badass arcade sticks if you really want to go all out.
