X-Arcade question
« on: June 29, 2004, 10:18:02 am »
I was considering using 1 player X-Arcade controllers for my next cocktail cabinet.  One solo controller for each side.  But I was thinking about using a 2 player X-arcade on each side so that Total Carnage, Smash TV and others could be played.

My question : Has anyone ever used 2 dual X-Arcades on the same machine?  Could it be done?  

If not, how about a 2 player X-Arcade on one side of the cab and a solo X-Arcade on the other?  Any conflicts or problems with this?

Thanks.

You can email Craig at X-Arcade.  They have tech people there that can answer your question.  They are really good about that.

Just go to their website and they can probably answer you quickly.  They were always good to me.

X-Arcade for PC is USB . . . I don't see a problem with it.  You would have to reprogram it to something different from the other ones, but that's not difficult.

Not able to visit the website here from worked because it's "Smartfilter" blocked.

.....while XArcade has a USB option, it's native connection is a PS2 connection (keyboard).....but I agree with the other post.....if you go USB you should be able to connect as many as you want with no problems.

Good Luck!

Thanks for the replies.  I received a response from X-Arcade that stated if I use the USB adapter, then I can connect 2 two-player controllers just fine.
