PiNPOiNT:

Hey guys
Just wondering if you could help me finalize my shopping list.
I'm preparing to build my first cabinet and im doing all the research before i get into it.  So i wanted to double check your thoughts on my shopping list for controls before i purchase them.  Please if you see anything that's missing, or un-needed please let me know

The goal of the cabinet, is to have 4 player controls, a spinner, a trackball, and another 4way controller

Shopping list

Other stuff
22 Gauge wire (red and black) (How many feet?)
Quick connects (How many?)

I will also need a Control Panel -> PC control Interface i imagine but im not sure

which one to go with,  with these many controls i want to make sure i dont have any

ghosting, so i'm guessing i need one that supports alot of keys, which one would you

recommend?  and do i need 2?
   

Do you guys see anything that i have left out? or should change if you feel there

would be a better solution?
Is there any other special connecter wires that i require?

thanks alot for all of your help guys

I'm new at this too, but my own research lead me to order an     I-Pac4 from Ultimarc (www.ultimarc.com), which is an interface that supports 4 player control layouts, along with a buttload of buttons.  As for a spinner, check out oscarcontrols.com and slikstik.com - they both seem to be highly recommended for their spinners.  Good luck!

i would look on ebay for trackball


i picked up one translucent with buttons for 90 (ps/2) connect

i was looking at the happ one but 150 is way to much

JoyMonkey:

If you're buying that many push-buttons, maybe you should call Wico and check the price with them. Wico's buttons are just as good as Happ's and sometimes they run great deals on them. Their number is 1-800-367-9426.
Their website hasn't been updated in years, but it's http://www.wicothesource.com
