Crazy man.. Well i originally wanted to buy a Slik Stik cab and controller. But money was tight.. Thought i'd have to wait for the next tax return.. untill i found a Killer Instinct 2 cab for sale locally on ebay.. Its been painted in black and was converted into a neo geo Hyper 64 game called Burkly one. Got it cheap for $212. It was an auction so i guess i got lucky. Sold the game that was in it and the motherboard and got some money back from the seller cause it didnt have locks nor mechs and the WG K7000 monitor looked pretty bad. So in the end that cab cost me about 30-40 bucks. hehe Planed on using a better monitor anyways but was hoping to sell the monitor.. Now looks like i'll just toss it out as its all faded. I've spent about 450-500 in the computer and another $500 on the Betson 27" monitor after shipping.. Prob end up blowing another $550 for the controls. I'm just waitin to make a quick couple of bucks so i can order all the parts for the controls and the ArcadeVGA 2 all at once. Then i'll have fun mounting the new monitor oh and the control panel as i need to raise it up about 2-3 inches.. Though i need to mod in a shelf for the keyboard. heheh so hopefully in a month i'll have it all runing. |

To save money is to go your way for sure. The only thing I hated about what I am doing is the charge of $1000 for an empty SS cab. The controller I figure, hey, labor and time spent to set up the business is worth it. The empty cab for a grand is killer wrong.... but, I'm crazy about some things and I have OCD so it has to match. Arrrghh. I'm just glad 1 up isn't selling his cab anymore or I'd have to spend $5k to get it! Anyway, like I said, I got about 3 raises at work this year, been saving up for like 2 and it's my bday so to hell with it, time to spend the bucks! |

Thanks again Kevin. --- End quote --- on that page, there is a link to the PDF manual. on page 16 of that manual is the key map, so you can see which switches and sticks are wired together. the diagram is a little confusing: note that "L", "L shift", and "L mouse" are different buttons. on a cursory glance, you might think they are all the "L" key. if you wire your panel identically, you can use the standard slikstik mame ctrlr file, which you can download here: http://www.slikstik.com/down.htm |
