Yeah they definitely have that "hot off the assembly line" feel--the itty bitty coin door irks me--either put in a real size one or leave it out entirely.

From a functional point of view its easier to get t-molding installed when all your corners aren't razor sharp angles...

The floor in the main photo almost makes me think it's a render rather than a real photo.

may be ugly, but each one of those represents a classic that didn't get maimed for MAME.

Hadn't thought of it that way. Right now for every classic on kijiji there's easily 10 to 15 MAMEd cabinets for sale

Having done some 3d modeling it would take a lot of work to make it look that bad.

When you have woodworking skills but no design skills....

Someone already mentioned the size of the coin entries but what about the fact that you have to kneel on the floor to reach them! LOL
