VGA is needed to connect from the host to the adapter yes, but the output to the TV/monitor can be either VGA or any RGBs capable cable like scart  ;D

This is amazing!
I'm trying to do exactly something like this. Then i hit a wall... Can't make proper use of the guncon without reading the composite video signal.
My idea was to "glue" two arduino libs. One is a lib to use a PS controller on a arduino (with a very good lib by the way). Another is to use a arduino as a usb mouse. :-P
You plan on making it open source? Also, you say VGA... as as in 31Khz? The original guncon can do it?
If you need any tester count me in! :D

Living in the USA, I have zero experience with SCART. I've only ever used VGA on old computer monitors.

I have a Trinitron that has component, composite, and S-video. I have a raspberry pi hooked up through composite. I guess that this wouldn't be compatible with the GUN2CRT?

Getting a pi working with the GunCon 1 or 2 sounds like a dream come true.

So this thing won't pass through component video if you're using a MiSTer?

Count me interested in this. The original crt light guns are a level above anything I've seen using LEDs. Following...
