  • I want to build my own arcade controls!
wire harness
« on: August 10, 2013, 05:24:47 pm »
I bought a Krazy Bowl game and put a 60-1 board in it. I would like to add a second set of controls and there is plug that allows you add more buttons. Is this something I can purchase, or do I just need to cut and splice? See link for pic of connector. The next pic in the set is a side view of it.

Thanks

All the games on 60 in 1 are alternating controls, so both sides would be active at once. You will have to splice if you want to do it (or I would solder up the duplicate wiring on the panel itself and leave the harness unhacked).
Acceptance of Zen philosophy is marred slightly by the nagging thought that if all things are interconnected, then all things must be in some way involved with Pauly Shore.

Bummer I had hoped that was a standard connector that I could tap into. I am trying not make too many changes to the cabinet....yet.

Although I doubt keeping my Krazy Bowl game intact would matter to hardly anyone on the planet....It's not that great of a game.

Adding the controls is far more of an invasive change to the game than anything you do with the wiring. You can rewire that whole game from scratch for less than $20.
