IIRC, your MERCs cabinet was one of about 3 games ever produced that did this. Any chance we can get a pic of the current control panel? If it's already working perfectly with the intact JAMMA wiring harness, you could easily go the ArcadeVGA/J-Pac route so that you could always reverse it back and run JAMMA boards later on. It should be a good cab for MAME. It's got a decent-sized control panel that you can easily fit 2 6-button layouts and a trackball in. Having a working 25" monitor isn't a bad start either. --- End quote --- Yes I chose this cab because of its control panel size potential and the nice working monitor. Here are a few pics if they will help give you an idea of what I am dealing with.. |

capcom CPS1 (and 2.. maybe even 3) are JAMMA. I used to play that game all the time at the corner store (till they replaced it with dungeons and dragons). Definately a good cab to MAME, I'd do a new 2 player square control panel, god knows its gonna be better then my 2 player CP thats only 24" across a litte KLOV info for ya: Manufacturer: Capcom Year: 1992 Class: Wide Release Genre: Scrolling Fighter Type: Videogame Monitor: * Orientation: Horizontal * Type: Raster: Standard Resolution * CRT: Color Conversion Class: Capcom CPS - JAMMA Number of Simultaneous Players: 3 Maximum number of Players: 3 Gameplay: Joint Control Panel Layout: Multiple Player Controls: * Joystick: 8-way * Buttons: 2 Sound: Amplified Mono (one channel) http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?letter=K&game_id=8333 |
