Mame For Christmas

[oyama82]

best xmas gift,congratulations to the father for growing up such smart kids that they learn to play REAL videogames,not crappy 360s and ps3s

[moshmind212]

Ms.Pac-Man, sorry.

[moshmind212]

1:43 That was such the right time for the Pac-Man theme. :D

[KoolTeddyX]

Nice!!!!! Excellent Video!!! Best present ever!!!!!

[altairtoro]

santo dios,hermoso regalo de navidad,los chicos estan felices.

[HopDiddyBrothers]

Gees I love this, looking back at me 4 years ago. That machine still works and we still use it every few days. Good times

[baldzillabill]

Outstanding!! I want one lol Very cool Christmas gift. Way to go Dad!!!

[DuucKSauce]

That's awesome....what a GREAT Christmas gift :) coinops RULE!!!!

[KitCloudkickerUK]

I wonder how many people had to turn the volume down when they started screaming, I know of at least 1.

[xerofire94]

awwww that's nice. I wish I could build my own for my brothers to play also if i had the right materials.

[massivepk1]

some advice make it coin opererated invite there friends round that way when your kids are wasting there poket money on the mame you get it back you can get your kids to save up theire playing money in the machine then send them to collage

[ZeRo2545]

This truly beats the crap out of consoles for a christmas present.

[sargon5]

How did you ever build this thing in secret without the kids knowing. I built one once and it took an incredible amount of time to sort out the front end and get everything just the way I wanted it it. its easier and faster to use the maximus frontend but the hyperspin frontend looks much better but requires more effort to get operational

[dingo1339]

"what do you guys wanna play?"

"PACMAN!!"

i salute these kids....for these are TRUE gamers! unlike all the other kids who are only into bloody and violent video games *COUGH COUGH COD COUGH"

[SCIONIZER]

Nice cab and a super piggybank too. Loved to see their reaction too.

[bradcuewalker]

PRETTY COOL

[CamBud08]

I thought it was a leg, y'know....like a statue! Yes, a statue! *gasp* It's a lamp! A lamp!!

[spleenandpie]

best dad evr!!

[ToonSxO]

wow..... there not screaming for call of duty or halo.... these are real gaming kids and here i am thinking they where extinct....

[N0N4M3OFWAR]

@ToonSxO No real gamers are not extinct for instance me i dont fucking care about call of duty or halo i dont even know what the fuck that is just a name for a game?

[ToonSxO]

@N0N4M3OFWAR dude stop lying, my mom knws what call of duty is, if your a real gamer, you would know about it, theres no way you have never heard of call of duty that shit is impossible, not saying its a great game but its impossible

[N0N4M3OFWAR]

@ToonSxO I dont know shit about call of duty :)

[potty5834]

aghhhh my ears! 

[mikezzknight]

I guess the quarters are going to pay it back over time

[sxdemon]

I wanted to make one (without wood, I dont have the tools for that), but my old pc is failing apart. Literally, I think the HDD is almost broken, Optical drive failed.....and nasty old IDE cables. I can't even boot it, I get a weird BIOS error haha, not even blue screen.

[sahlaboohlas]

i really cry my man...

[nibelung34343]

i got my 5yr old cousin one of these for xmas he loves wizard of war

[soundgarden21]

Ha! they got stoked when they saw Centipede. That is awesome, if i had a son(s) i would raise them on the classics as well. Tear*

[cassiaro]

wonder what their grades were that year lol XD best gift ever, maybe one day they'll beat Daigo

[Quartrez]

I feel sorry for the kids who received an Xbox 360 for Christmas instead of a MAME Cabinet.

[FoxifiedNutjob]

They will remember this moment for the rest of their lives!

Good job, Dad!!

[traynell1]

that was way cool!!!!!!

[minigini613]

Nice PJ'S that kid is like 10

[eddiepeay]

Super DAD! My son and I are in the middle of building one now, he gets weird looks from the other 6 year olds at school when he talks about mame roms and centipede though. ( blank stare followed by, I have xbox) Great gift.  Hope mine turns out this good.

[REpsycho]

this is right behind "nintendo 64 kid"...thats a hell of a nice present though!

[KingTMD]

For the kids...and YOU.

[TheNews1990]

nice machine

[turtlepug]

[Skyler310]

[MarkusVhane]

[newkillergenius]

[matt82pulses]

[matt82pulses]

They remember me and my brother in '80s....!

Good old times! And it's so great to see kids in happiness!Well done!

[tunicaroja86]

[festermaster100]

[underpathunderpath]

You are one hell of a father! I wish I got something like this for Xmas (ANY YEAR!)

[mechaart]

"Hey son what is it"?

"It's an arcade machine"

best lines ever

[AysahSpades]

You are a bloody good dad hahahaha, i would be soooo happy to have got that at that age. fuck it id be happy now at 20 as an engineering student.

[nibelung34343]

kid 1: what you want tp play

kids: PACMAN!!!

epic love it

[hogcia66]

Hay dad this is your long lost soon!!!!

[CablloBlanco]

They were ....excited!

[Wrath102]

my ears are bleeding

[LordBababa1]

Those kids have a lucky dad. My dad considers video games expensive G I joes and will always give me stupid book of mormon crap (Because it makes me to go "heaven" and "spiritually uplifts me")

Oh well, I am sixteen now and managed to build my own :D

[MrNiceHk]

This is too fucking Awesome

[wodahsean]

@MrNiceHk im too 

[sonofsam717]

You're a really cool dad. I would have flipped just like your kids did if I got this for christmas. I'm 39 now & built my own (a very difficult yet rewarding project). If you do any upgrades to the FE you might want to get Hyperspin. Maximus is nice too.

[TheBoyAintRite]

Can you adopt me?, I got socks last year :(

[mrronharsh]

LoL, I take it mamma didnt like the bezels lol DOES IT GO BIGGER?? lol, i love the bezels a real authentic feel!

[nibelung34343]

c 7 c command and conquer

i love your kids man

"mame you got mame i love mame"

[nibelung34343]

my little 4 yrold son loves mame he would rather play burgertime and wizard of war than halo

[MrNiceHk]

That really is too cool ... Parents of the Century Award !

[THEREALNAPSTER1000]

i agree with sub zero you can't appreciate good games if you have never seen where the games have evolved from....2D, Bad Scrolling, Crash And Burn.....

Floods back to ya when you see it again bring back the 45min tape loaders and give the kids some patience in return KEEP IT REAL KEEP IT RETRO

[SubZeroGTA]

it's good to see little kids who likes real gaming and not that halo bullshit

[Supermariokingify]

An extreemly nice cabinet. Only a 4 button layout though but It is fantastic. Can you make more videos with your kids playing it and inside the machine?

[PunkRocker666Metal]

LOL nintendo 64 much? :P just kidding your kids are great XD

[palenegroe]

pretty sure i would do that on christmas right now if my dad gave me that and im 21 ha

[becoool54321]

omg i lolat when the kidz face jus changed cos theire dad told them u need 2 put a quater in

[partylikepacman]

hmm the trend seems to be mame but I'm old school still planing on building mine with Jamma style.

[xtremeboy91]

they break the mic :D

[EvilChicobo]

You guys are such awesome parents! Those kids are lucky :) It's great to see kids excited about the classics we grew up with.

[soursaul]

i wish my dad got me that.. and im 21 haha!

cheers!

[malagoni1]

that guys goes crazy

[rosyroby]

I'm 32 but I envy you so much, blessed are you, this is my passion

[ArcadeGames]

Very cool, they will learn to appreciate the classics.

[ColtSSR]

Lol at fake plastic pictures on the wall!

[Sheepy007]

oh, just 4 Button Layout? No Interest in Capcom Fighters and MK?

[nijola1]

lol at 2:21

[klote2314]

C&C stands for command and conquer!!

[pocketmc]

i wish i got yhay for christmas

[dorfd1]

I would never had turned on the artwork by default

[fiveoheye]

Ha ha. That's funny and cool. I just finished my MAME cab last month and just had friends over today to play. I felt like that when I finally finished. We're all in our thirties though. The inspiration for me was that my Dad never approved of videogames and would limit me to two or three new games a year. I would have flipped my wig getting this as a gift as a kid (even now!). Very cool. I'm glad your spreading videogame history to the next generation.

[JohnnyEscutia]

hey gringo, you are such a great father!!! your kids seem to be very happy with the present!

[Cooldj9239]

i am not new to mame but i am new to making a cabinet i found an old one and i wondered how to hook up my coin box to my pc to use it on there any help please

[DDRFreak410]

Watching this video inspired me to be a great dad like yourself when I get older and have my own.

[1337ms1337]

o.......m..........g MAME For Christmas?!?!?! all i wish wheen my birthday comes i wishh MONEY so i can buy one :D

[amiga2000]

makes me feel good to see kids their age yell "mame mame mame mame!"

[JokinJoe]

Quarters lol!

You are an awesome dad!

[voltz15]

The kids seem really happy. Now it would only make sense to take away the newer stuff and work them on the basics. :D

[MBpictures]

The next Nintendo 64 kids!

[Sypthv8]

Lmao no kidding.

[wingnut4427]

That's nice ! I would have shit My pants if I had gotten something like that for Christmas. Your a good dad man !

[116randomness]

@wingnut4427 i shit my pants watching them open it.

[bigpete405]

thats the best reaction ever. Good Stuff

[Ultimateprototype]

That was 2 funny! You are a great dad, but what also made me laugh was the fact that your wife was questioning the pac-man size at the end, and you were sort of stalling to tell her the answer....lol...I just built my cab too, bout to post it as well, but something I need help with is starting it from the beginning with mame instead of windows xp when you start up. I liked that. How did you change it to mame start up?

[fuzzywzhe]

Ah to be 10 again.

Now I have 10,000 video games and it's just a collection that would be gathering dust, if it wasn't for the fact they are on an enclosed 1TB HD.

[sonicfan966]

Wow man, Thats gotta be one of the greatest gifts you could give to a kid. Thumbs up for you. :D

[corndog125nalald]

you guys are great parents. your kids seem very happy

[thepoopsniff]

i laghed when they found out they needed quarters

[moomert1]

Thats cool. I plan on doing the same thing for some family members

[tguellich]

MameMan is right, what a great gift. The cabinet looks great, nice work dad.

[YourMameMan]

That's so awesome. What a great gift.

[prattproduction]

nice video it was funny when you were screaming.
