Isn't Gauntlet Legends a 49-way joystick game? I would think you would need to shell out the money for analog controls like getting 4 u360s. (If you have gauntlet legends joysticks already, you would need to get 4 gp wiz-49s from GGG) Then, you will need an encoder for buttons only. AFAIK, Gauntlet legends has 18 buttons; 3 for each player (12) + 4 start buttons + 2 coin buttons. Awkward number of buttons. Maybe I'd go with an iPac 2. No matter what route, I think the interface for a gauntlet legends gets a bit hefty in price. :-\ |

FWIW, if one went the GP-Wiz49 route for each joystick, no extra controller would be necessary for buttons. With 4 of those interfaces, there would be 92 button inputs available for anything else. :) |

I'll have to put salvaging 49 ways on my radar. 8) So i suppose if you got the 49 way joysticks already, that would easily be the cheapest and most effective route. Mathing it up in my head, I'd think getting new analog sticks plus an encoder would be more than $100 more expensive. |

Sorry I must have got you all confused. I am not restoring this cabinet but turning it into a MAME/EMU machine. I already removed all the buttons.. the joysticks never came with the machine. |
