This is a group for people that play, own, emulate, and preserve video games from the 70's 80's and 90's. Whether you own your own retro game system or arcade cabinet, or play game ROMs with emulation software like MAME or MESS this group is for you. Every month we will feature a different game system and make available the original hardware. After a brief discussion about the history of the system and it's games, we will discuss and walk you through how to emulate the system on your gaming rig. We will also be a resource for those interested in building their own MAME cabinets or multicade machines. And of course... ... we play games! Trade high scores, tips, tricks, and walk-throughs!
