Default MAME+Xarcade=WIN

I bought an xarcade controller from a friend of mine about two years ago and never got around to hooking it up. Well another friend of mine came over tonight and I got it running. Damn that was fun! We played a round of golden tee then beat battle toads, xmen, and TMNT in one sitting. I'm going to need to rig up a more permanant set up. Maybe buy another dual stick for four player action. I'm going to have to think of some more classic games to play.

thanks! I know I've forgotten a lot of classics. I'm also going to grab bad dudes.

$130 may sound expensive but this is the best built controller I've ever used. There is no way I'm going through the effort of buying a shit load of parts and putting them all together to come up with something about half this nice. Besides I bought it used for $50 But I'm still considering buying another (new) controller for 4 players. Right now I want the track ball for golden tee. Eventually I hope to getting around to building a cabinet for everything.
