Miniature Arcade Project

It would have a minipac for the control panel which would plug into the USB of the first cabinet. You could then place them next to each other or back to back and the 2nd cabinet would be used for player 2. That would be awesome, and more fun than using an Xbox controller.
Must resist starting another one before I've finished the first ::)

That's dangerous thinking, my friend! The kind of thinking that doubles your project time. But, that sounds like a hell of a cool idea. A side by Side mini Gauntlet I and II is making me drool a little. :cheers:
Nephasth:
Awesome idea about the slave unit. You wouldn't even need another minipac, just use a harness and connector to hook up to the minipac in the master unit, could do the same with your LED controller as well, all in one harness. Looking forward to seeing Gauntlet II!
Corbo:
That's a great idea linking up the minipac.
I think I might have to give it a couple of months before embarking on a slave cabinet, if only for the wifes sanity. Gauntlet 2 has exactly the same dimensions, just slightly different artwork so it would be fairly easy.
Corbo:
I've been clearing out the basement and making it into a usable space over the last couple of days.
I now have a mini man cave, fit for a mini arcade!
Malenko:
I am LOVING this. :applaud:
worst case, you could get mame marquees/game on graphix to do the artwork.
