I added up the number of buttons I want to use and came to the conclusion I will need a JPAC + IPAC to get the desired amount working as well as utilise the cabinet parts. I'll see how large the original board is and make sure to keep it in a safe place :angel:

o you realize the cab has no buttons? Smash tv uses two joysticks for each player. The 4 'buttons' are left, right, up, down on the fire joystick. You will have to drill holes and damage the CP to install typical arcade buttons.

Well Fed Games:
I think he means if he made a replacement CP- as I mentioned previously, copying a Smash TV CP could easily be done in a half hour- just a flat peice of wood, with metal on top, the metal being unnecessary on a home use cabinet. Route with the original as a template, and there you go.
:police: Everybody be cool.

FWIW, I am not ticked off with you at all.
I was ticked off with Max for his rant about people who do hate to see classics MAMEd -- their opinions are every bit as valid as yours and his.

Well obviously mine's the only one that's NOT valid, because no matter what I post, people keep telling me to shut up.
Sure, nobody has threatened to come to his house and kick his ass, but there have been comments along the lines of "do this, that and the other thing to make sure you can put it back as it was" and I say bollocks... let him "ruin" it however he pleases.
Simple as that, so go f :censored: k yourself.
