Hey Jason,

Welcome to the site! If you want a cheap way to get into MAME, I would look into getting an empty cabinet powered with a Raspberry Pi running retropi. If a full sized cab is not there for you, then you can get an Arcade1Up cabinet with a Pi and run MAME in the same way. That is what I'm doing for my arcade fix. I don't want to use up the slot that I would normally put a pinball machine at, so I've got an A1Up with a Pi, and it's in our living room right now with the kids toys...but I have no issues turning it on to play :)

GL!
