| dual joystick CP for cocktail cab |
| (1/1) |
| rchadd:
i am building removable CP's for my cocktail cab at the moment. so far i have following CP's 4/8 way joystick with 6 buttons (2 of this CP's) arkanoid spinner with 3 buttons (2 of this CP's) 3" trackball with 3 buttons (1 of this CP) I have seen a few cabs with dual joystick controls, and now wondering if i should build one. I assume these type of controls are for battlezone, robotron and crazy climber. I do not know of any other games that need such controls. Can anyone recommend other games? I would go for dual 8way Jsticks, but how many buttons would be required? thanks for your advice |

i assume for 2 player versions of such games that an ipac4 is not required. i figure with my ipac2 i would just wire up the second joystick to buttons 1-4. would this work? is this what mame expects as standard? or would ini files need to edited to allow this? that would still leave 4 button connections free per player as long as i dont implement any sysadmin buttons. in addition to the joysticks how many fire/action buttons would be required per user for such games? is 3 enough/too many? |
