Konami's 12-in-1 arcade cabinet is lovely, in its own gaudy, slightly flimsy way. By the standards of arcade-style retrogaming, it's surprisingly cheap, too: you can now get this 5-ft cabinet, color monitor and the game system within for only $400.

The paltry selection of titles (listed below), however, reminds us that some expert wheeler-dealer needs to get everyone together to produce the ultimate 1200-in-1 arcade game that we actually want. And given the price, it's a fair bet you can't refit it with MAME and a bagful of illicit ROMs, or treat those joysticks the way they deserve to be treated.

UPDATE: Gizmodo has a coupon code that lets you get it for $320!
