Decent MAME Spinner?

Looks like a good cheap solution.

I'm trying to avoid hacks and things of the such if I can.

Not cause I can't do it... just that I want to
take the easy way out this time around... and just
plug in a usb cable if possible.

I see a $12 part, that takes time to construct
equal to a $40 part that you have to order and wait for a week
for.   For the extra $28... Id rather rather just be lazy.
(until my wife finds out  ;)  )
Then I'll be building the cheap stuff.. ha ha!

Awww thats not the way to think about it :P  This is people building their own cabinets and controllers, hence BYO, at least consider it.  If you think about it, the $28 this time, and then the few bucks next time, with the cash you save, you can buy better joysticks or siding or something.  Consider it :)  BTW, nice spinner!  I saw one on a site...lemme get it....http://home.t-online.de/home/stephan.hans/tricks.htm#SPINNER%20for%20superduperarcadeconsole.  This place has a few circuits and stuff, I was going to build the two mouse two keyboard one until I found out how hard it is to find a solderable PS2 port :P

Oh...  :o


I thought it was "BUY your own arcade controls"
heh

Okay... I guess building isn't COMPLETELY out of the question...
And if it does turn out good, I definaltely would be more
proud of myself for what I have done...

decisions, decisions....

cholin:
Thats the spirit!  And you figure, if you were GOING to spend the extra couple bucks, and you fail with your mouse hack / custom spinner, you can easily use the money to try again or just order one and you only lost a little bit, and youll feel better for trying :D  Plus, never know what people will buy now a day!

Is it just my browser - or did Cholin post twice in this thread - yet his post total is "1"
