ArcadeFX is my interpretation of almost everything I want in a MAME front-end that runs under Windows with a PC monitor:

  • I wanted something that looked as good, if not better, than any game.
  • I did not want it to look like a standard Windows application develped with C++ or VB.
  • I wanted it to be very eye pleasing. It must also lock the user out of the window environment as much as possible.
  • I wanted the UI to be skinable so I can change the interface when I got bored with it.
  • I wanted it to be almost entirely controlled with a joystick or trackball and only the ESC and ENTER buttons.


For the most part, these are the requirements when I started this project in July of 2001. Was I asking too much? I did not think so. So with a good friend of mine we began the path of creating our perfect MAME front-end that runs under Windows.
