Full-size, portable (on wheels) MAME machine that plays thousands of arcade and home video games (every one I ever heard of before ~ 1999). Stand-up, full-sized console and bezel that easily rolls. The machine plugs into any HDTV via included HDMI cable so you can play on huge screens. This...

SOLD! I'm selling my baby. I got my Atari Quantum about 12 years ago. It plays perfectly and looks great. The front, marquee, and control panel all look perfect. The sides look great with some typical scratches and scuffs for a game of this age. It has a W-G monitor & the main wiring...

Download MAMEZach Blog Spreadsheet with info on all 275 Games of the Day Lots of dudes have asked for a centralized place with all the MAMEZach Blog GOTD info. I keep a spreadsheet of all 900+ games that are my favorites in MAME. I chopped it down to the GOTDs (about 275) and prettied it up...

Happy MAME-iversary. Interestingly, in that year, I’ve made 247 Game of the Day posts (the first was Nitro Ball) and another 171 other posts for a total of 418. Who knew I was so full of hot air? Anyway, now that there are more readers, it’d be especially cool to have some of you guys...

New Hall of Fame - Games of the Day with Awesome Graphics (Mamezach blog) Many things make a game great... Ideas, controls, programming and graphics to name a few. No one likes eye candy without a great game behind it, but all the Games of the Day (GOTD) on my blog are already games I love...

I've slapped together another t-shirt design masquerading as a quiz. Again, I've removed all the names and posted the design. See if you can be the first to post a comment on the blog naming all of them correctly. All the ships are from arcade games and they are...

Quiz: How many of these old school spaceships can you identify? I'm making a t-shirt for myself and cut out a bunch of old-school ships to combine in photoshop. The shirt actually has all the names on it, but I erased the names to post this quiz. All of these are the ships you play as (not...

Shmups where your fire gets more powerful with faster tapping???? Just reviewed Twin Cobra 2 as the GOTD on my blog. It's one of those games that the faster you tap the fire button, the more powerful your fire becomes. If you slow or stop, your fire reverts back to minimum. Love these games...

Find Games-of-the-Day by Genre now on the MAMEZach Blog. For those of you that requested such, I've added Genre to the ways you can find/locate/group the Games of the Day on my blog. Believe it or not, there are now more than 200 GOTDs. That's a lot of playing and blogging. You'll see where...

I'm still adding Halls of Fame to the blog. This one is for games that I have already posted as Games of the Day that I find to be very difficult. Keep in mind that they are already GOTDs because I loved playing them and they are fun, but I'm just warning you to watch out when you play them...

New Hall of Fame - Must Play "Games of the Day" There are now almost 200 GOTD posts on my blog. Since there are always new folks finding the blog, many of them have told me that they find it difficult to plow through all of them in any sort of timely manner. So I thought I'd take a crack at...

Hey everyone. A couple of weeks ago, I took down my Classic Games/MAME blog as I no longer have time to dedicate to updating it and I hate when blogs sit idle, old and unattended. But I got lots of messages and emails from folks who still wanted to go thru some of the content. So, while I...

For those of you that have emailed and the rest of you that might give a slight crap, my gaming blog is now history. Just don't have the time to dedicate to it. Had a lot of fun doing it and I appreciate everyone's comments and visits. Play on. Z

New Hall of Fame for 2 Player "Versus" Games It's fun to get to level 50 on Galaga or play Pac-Man for an hour, but not if you are playing two players... (unless the 2nd player needs some sleep or likes to read). What's more fun is two player games where you go mano a mano with the other...

Added a 2nd Hall of Fame on my MAMEBlog. It's for games that have appeared as "Game of the Day" that have cool or unusual control schemes. They are all the MAME version, so they do not benefit from their arcade cabinet hardware uniqueness, but all have interesting ways to control the action...

Just played some Burglar X. Forever committed to memory because of the "fart" button. Hilarious and fun. Had to make it today's game of the day on my blog. Is there a game with a more heinous weapon? You can check out the game-of-the-day post on it here... http://mamezach.blogspot.com/

New Hall of Fame for Bizarre "Games of the Day" I appreciate the feedback I get on my MAMEBlog. One of the things I have heard is that now that there are almost 150 "Games of the Day", they can be a little hard to sift through if you don't want to check them all out. So, in order to emphasize...

Okay, I admit it, I suck at at Track & Field. Played it in the olden days in the arcade (1983) and my friend always beat me (schmuck). Owned a dedicated one for many years and never got much better. Had parties where folks beat my butt despite the fact that I owned the machine. Now I only...

I appreciate you guys who emailed me and wondered no posts for the last few days. We were without power, phone, internet for 3 days. It's all back now but still precarious as a windstorm is following. Anyway, missed doing the blog and the Game of the Day. Had done a GOTD every day for over 4...

Took me a while to plow thru the 150 top MAME fighters. But I did it, and the list of my favorite 36 is now up on my blog. It goes along with the lists of my fav Vertical shooters, Horizontal Shooters, Omni Shooters, Cross-Hair, Platformers, Misc games, etc. There's a box on the right to...
