Long gone are the days of going to the arcade to
hang out. I used to take a good chunk of the five
dollar allowance my parents gave me every week
with me down to the arcade down the road to play
video games with my friends. We would spend hours
there every Saturday afternoon playing our
favorite racing games, fighters and just hanging
out.

Around the time I went away to college, I saw a
bunch of the local video arcades heading out of
town as well, including the neighborhood arcade I
grew up with. While the realization that times
were changing hit me a little hard, I figured
that there would still be ways to enjoy at least
the sentimental value of playing those old games
again.

Just out of curiosity, I went to an auction site
to see what one of these machines was selling
for. Much to my disappointment, I found that many
of these old arcade machines went for thousands
of dollars. Not only were these things not
affordable for the average person, but theres no
way my wife would also something that big and
clunky into our apartment.
6
With those plans shattered I began to look
elsewhere for my arcade game fix. With another
quick search I found that there are plenty of
sites out there that offer arcade style games for
people to play online for free. I was genuinely
excited to get to play my old games again on my
PC. After a little more checking I found that
these were not really the arcade games I grew up
on, but instead cheesy Flash based games that
were a weak substitute for the real thing.

I decided just to settle for them anyway and to
try to be content. But then, I started noticing
that my computer was running very slow and some
of my programs were not functioning properly.
Long story short, these sites had actually
installed dangerous software onto my computer
without my knowledge! Needless to say, I was
pretty unhappy about that one.
9
After I got the software removedIll spare you
the gory detailsI gave this whole arcade game on
the computer thing one last effort. This time
however, I was able to discover MAME emulators.
Finally, what I had been looking for! These
programs simulated the arcade game experience
right there on my PC! I was even able to find
copies of the games that I had grown up playing
and saw them on my screen right there in front of
my very eyes!

While the emulators were a little difficult to
work at first, I found a great front end at
Gameex.com that made the whole process a whole
lot simpler. All my settings related to video or
graphics or anything like that were handled for
me and the games look great every time. My third
party controller was even supported. Im pumped!
So glad that I get to finally play my arcade
games again.
