Good plan getting the PC/emulator stuff working before spending $$ on the cabinet & controls. Similarly, I'd recommend buying controls and then doing a mock-up of the control panel using cardboard or scrap plywood. The point it to identify your actual requirements before building or buying an actual cabinet. Another alternative is to buy some cheap USB knock-off console controllers and use those as stand-ins for the arcade controls to help to answer "how many players, how many buttons, what games do my kids actually play?" |

Not a bad call - as I continue down this rabbit hole, I just have more and more questions. There’s a lot of variables to digest with the joysticks, buttons, wiring, control board….Im having fun figuring it all out, just trying not to waste money so I appreciate your suggestion. The whole family has it in their mind this thing is going to be done in a month lol. |
