This project was inspired by a Sam Seide's mini cocktail project. I always wanted to build one of these but thought you'd be limited to vertical cocktail games. When I found out, through Sam's video, that MAME can do Cocktail mode for horizontals I was ready to start work.


This project took me 4 weeks to complete. The majority of that time was spent on the artwork and configuring the software.

Oh this is a fabulous cabinet Zallax! Nice work!

The SSD must make this fly! That's an upgrade I'm looking at with my tax return.
