Time to buy some hardware...
I'm happy enough with my current Hyperspin install that it's finally time to buy the hardware to go into the cabinet.
See below for the list of items I'm thinking of purchasing, would apprecaite some feedback (if I'm missing something crucial or getting the wrong type of whatever)
Remember that I have an old 2nd hand cab that I'm going to gut, making my own control panel.
Being based in NZ my options for buying are a bit more limited due to the cost of shipping from the US. I've found what looks to me a good place in Australia to buy from, would rather buy the lot from one place and only pay the one shipping fee.
At this stage I'm aiming to build a basic cab for sf2, so going for 2 joysticks with 6 buttons each
Ipac2

Ipac USB Cable

Buttons

Coin Button

Joystick

Wiring Kit

Remember the prices are in Australian dollars and include tax...
