Hi all,

Having a free Saturday and not much to do I decided to throw something together.

Quite pleased with it all in the end. Check out the video, let me know what you think.

    seems like ur so busy doing research u r barely moving through out the video. is this a jailbroken iPad running roms or you bought all of those games?

    could you grace us with some of the titles? some of them i don't even remember the names of.

    if only GS is bluetooth compatible, and multi player compatible... if only.

    hehe, I was trying to stay off camera as best as I could. My iPad is running iMame4all and yes it is a jailbroken app.

    The games in the video are (in order):

    Street Fighter 2 CE
    Ghosts and Goblins
    Pac-Man
    1943
    Double Dragon
    Puzzle Bobble
    Simpsons
    Moonwalker
    Kung Fu Master
    Robocop
    Sunset Riders
    Frogger
    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

    Nice :)

    Street Fighter 2 CE and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles... we used to play those all the time. The music and SFX are still great. For some reason the local taxi office has a bunch of arcades!

    The only thing missing from your setup was for some 10 year kid to place his 10p on the counter and then demolish all the big kids!

    You're missing Golden Axe too!

    Dammit!

    The games are on there though (plus I rediscovered the joys of metal slug earlier). Maybe I need to make a new video.

    Glad you guys like it. hehe, maybe I should sell it ;)

    You probably should sell it! this looks awesome! the only problem would be to compete with think geek's Icade. http://www.appleiphoneschool.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/icade_main_zoom.jpg

    Yours looks like more quality. The Icade looks more like plastic.

    I love the icade, I think it's a great piece of kit. It just loses it's great look for me when you mount the iPad landscape in it. As a child of the 80s most of my nostalgia is majority landscape games (about 1987 onwards).

    Would love to see a new vid with those three games on it!

    I'm not a fan of jailbreaking though, so no sale here! Sorry!

    Still Jealous though ;)

    QS :D
