| Where should I put my dreamcast? |

| Goz:
I don;t have a current picture, but when I first put my Dreamcast in a cab, I was able to put it and the hacked pads inside the CP without issue. Since this picture the Dreamcast is still in the CP but in a much nicer cleaner look and I have a KVM and a serial data switch in the panel as well to switch between other systems MAME & XBOX). I find its very convenient to have the Dreamcast located in the front for switching games and I highly recommend it. -Goz |

I have my DC in the cabinet which is located near a TV as well. I switch between cabinet use and standard controllers with the TV whenever a game seems to be better one way versus another way. Games that take full use or are designed around a standard controller (analog stick, shoulder controls, etc.) are best played with real controllers. But then there's the shooters n fighters that play awesome on a cabinet. Best of both worlds for me is to swap controls and video/audio whenever I wanna. - pmc |

I play confidential mission and house of the dead 2 all the time on my Dreamcast cab which has a VGA monitor. Oh and if you can put it in your cab; go for it. --- End quote --- Than why on earth are we dealing with writing drivers and such for Guncons (which if i remember, need a little finaggling with to get working with a pc monitor), when we've known about a perfectly good light gun from the get go....
