I see the cab building style hasn't improved a lot since the Wimi-cabs from Belgium....... :roll:

Sometimes......those Belgians........are really.............Belgians :D

They do make great waffles though !

And the best beer in the world !

And they are usually very polite and reasonably modest....contrary to The Dutch..... :D

Well, the cabinet shape or technical part is not really important on that story  ::)
The idea here is to present an arcade cabinet based on the funny & original concept (waffle from Belgium in that case).
If your check the link, you'll see that cabinet is located ...in USA  ::)

It puzzles me too. The game is super cool. Nice retro kind of graphics, very stylish and fun at the same time.
But that machine.... It's ready for CRAPMAME (http://wickedretarded.com/~crapmame/).

ugly cab indeed but cool game :) hopefully it's not belgian made (we're better with waffle anyway :p) , else it'd stick to our reputation ;)

I'd love to work on a arcade game (programming wise :) ).
