Well, my response was based solely on what you requested, and it sounded like you really want to keep using that old CRT. Had I known you were ok spending $100 or more, I would have suggested buying a new monitor instead. A cheap one will do just fine for MAME.

There's HLSL or whatever to add the CRT and/or scanline look to your games. There's the USB Wiimote thingy you can use not only for Wii emulators, but also to use a Wiimote as a light gun. With just a tiny bit of ingenuity, you can mount a widescreen monitor in/on a rotating piece so you can actually play vertical shooters the way they were intended to be played. Not to mention energy savings...

Only real downside I can think of, is if you have an actual PC light gun that requires a CRT to work. But another $34 can get you the Wiimote adapter...
