OMF:BG Message Board

PhreakyByNature

So, my buddy, he who originally "shared" OMF: 2097 with me, has been working on building a small arcade machine, to which he has also hooked up external controllers (NES, SNES, PSX etc)... However, the built-in controller he has made alng the cabinet with a small screen is still pretty impressive.

He has a multitude of emulators running on it, as well as DOSBox.

Without further ado, I present to you, Pi-based OMF Arcade:

I'm going to his house in September so I'm dying to play this! Smile

RetroPie on Facebook is where he posts stuff and gets inspiration, should you be inclined to build this!

Man, don't have the space or money to build something like that!

And all my money forward is going to be saving up for buying Codex and Nintendo Switch when they come out ! >_<

I have a full cabinet at home - it used to be a Blades of Steel cab but it was gutted before I got it. I've since shoved an old Phenom II X965 with a GeForce 620 in it. It's currently running Hyperspin, using Rocketlaucher to handle MAME. I have plans to further build it out (I have a trackball already) but before I do that I actually want to rebuild my control panel. It's currently too tight in the box from the cab so I was going to create a mounting block and basically have a self-contained control panel I can just drop in/mount and plug into a USB hub for easier maintenance. I can give pictures, if desired.

Does anyone have a link to what they used to get this running on a pi? is it using dosbox or some sort of emulator like that? emulation station play it? It would be nice to add to my RetroPi setup.

Thanks! I think I already have DosBox installed in my retropie. but That tutorial, while really long, will help fill in any gaps if I have them.
