how to wire up multiple systems to a single arcade cabinet? I am planning to put in an xbox and a PC into my cabinet. The controllers i hooked up are Xbox+PS2+gamecube all in one controllers, and the lightguns are LCD topgun all in one. I can hook up all the systems individually, if i unhook and switch the video and controllers. Is there a good way to put it all into one switch? |

Glad someone else posted this. I was wondering the same thing. Its all so simple! I've got a couple of those cheapo-walmart switchers laying around. I can just slide it into the keyboard drawer! now for a question to dougman, what did you use to wire that controller? A splitter and converters? or a custom wire job? Or was it a universal controller? |

Hmmm.. looks like i have to get a BUNCH of switchers. since the controllers have 4 pins each (USB/Xbox), lightguns are another bunch of pins and the video is 5 pins each. :O I hacked apart my soul calibur 2 universal joysticks. They are always on sale for like $20 or less. |

If you don't mind hacking apart the cables you could use something like thisDB25-4 Manual 4-Way Data Switch Box |
