The page has been frigging SLAMMED since is got some publicity over the weekend, but its absolutely worth a look for those of you old enough to know what an arcade actually is.

Most games are playable in some form, although some are useful more for verification of behavior or programming due to the intensity and requirements of their systems.

You can't 100% legally do it yet, but soon. These are old cars. 25 years almost.
Otherwise.... yeah. We did get the BG 323 here.

I played with MAME32 in the 90s, probably still have my whole arcade collection somewhere (several hundred megs seemed like a lot of disk space back then.)
Is this pretty much the same thing?

'Car Talk' Co-Host Tom Magliozzi Dies At 77 : The Two-Way : NPR
Oh boo :(
Tom and his brother, Ray — aka “Click and Clack the Tappet Brothers” — bantered, joked, and offered automobile advice for 25 years on the weekly NPR show Car Talk. The brothers began the show at WBUR in Boston in 1977 and brought it to NPR’s national audience in 1987. Since the brothers retired in 2012, reruns of the show have been aired weekly on member stations for the past two years — a testament to the popularity of the show and its hosts.

Some company is paying us $2800 to open the doors today for a few hours and run $200 worth of their product. We're taking a loss just in light and heat for the building. I'll never understand this.
