If I can do this, I'll need a cheap computer... an arcade stick A USB dance pad A USB fighting controller A USB Light gun. NES AND SNES EMULATORS. NES AND SNES ROMS Stepmania Stepmania simfiles. And a monitor Oh, and wood. lots of it.
I'm planning on using a Mac-mini bootcamped into windows as that's the cheapest computer I'ce found so far.
And windows is more compatible with USB things, for windows.

Build you own mini computer. Its much cheaper. You could build a good gaming rig with the money it takes to buy a mac mini. |

So an arcade cabinet, but no arcade titles. I can only really say "wat" at that, seeing as my huge volcabulary is having a strike. |

Building a computer doesn't mean building a high end PC. You could probably build a computer that can play roms and Stepmania for about 100-200 dollars while Mac Minis cost 500-750. |
