I use those magic gliders under my arcade games. Makes it easier to pull them out to work on and it doesn't sink into the padding much. I cranked the levelers all the way in on my 63 and it just sits on the floor.

I have casters on my machines. But, I have taken a piece of plywood, cut it down, and covered it with a mat. That way, the machine displaces its weight over the entire piece of wood. You could also cover the plywood with a leftover piece of the carpet, so it will look like a perfect match to the casual glance.
