Woah! Full analog buttons (patents pending)!  Pretty slick.  I wonder where they sourced the analog sticks from.

I believe the buttons are arranged that way so you can use the analog sticks and triggers simultaneously.  I imagine the 6 buttons are arranged at an angle simply because they didn't have enough room.  Otherwise this would be pretty sweet.

I love to try the analog buttons and joysticks.

I wonder if they will sell them seperate.?


Its not just made for XBOX it all so runs Game Cube, and PS2.  I dont know about dreamcast though.

Yeah, this could be an excellent solution for cabinets using consoles. While I'm not a fan of the layout, wouldn't one be able to hack apart Quasi-cade's panel and build their own CP using the controls and circuitry that are integrated into this?

One of my rotating panels is going to be an Xbox panel, and if I could get everything fully analog then I could play any game on my cabinet and I'd be ecstatic!

I spoke with someone at Quasimoto and it looks like they're going to selling the control panel as a stand-alone in the near future. I'm very excited about this because now I should be able to play console games on my cabinet without trying to figure out how to hack a potentiometer and getting the L and R buttons to work.

They give you a price?

I asked what the cost was and they said that they haven't come up with a price yet. In fact they just decided they were going to offer the control panel as a stand-alone; before that they were only offering it along with the cabinet. The executives are going to meet and work on pricing in the next couple weeks. They told me they'd give me a call when it's set, so once I know I'll post the information.

Ron,

We have not been selling the QuasiCON separately from the arcade system
until recently and the website is due to be updated soon.  Thanks for
emailing your request.  The QuasiCON is $599 s/h included.  The QuasiCON is
universal to all game consoles for 'plug-and-play' ease.  If you are
interested, you may order it by emailing me.

Kind regards,
Jessica Fuller
Sales Director

Well today I actually saw the Quasicade up close and personal, at a local billiards retailer. If I did buy the QuasiCon I'd definitely be taking it apart and building my own panel. My fingers just didn't sit right on the buttons. The 7 buttons on the right needed to be sloped in the opposite direction, not like a V. I don't know what I'm going to do now, but if I were to buy it I'd be buying it for the interface and the parts, not the panel it comes in.

Just one man's opinion.
