Here is a picture of my MAME machine which not only plays arcade games, it can also play thousands of emulated console games like Atari 2600, Nintendo/Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis and many more.

It also plays MP3′s of all my favorite 80′s songs and some of my favorite metal songs as well. My Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator rocks!!!
