The guy's got some ball$ doing all this with the game turned ON..

Mamed for life:
Nice video.

As a noob at this, why does the Ms Pac in the video have 3 leafs on the joystick, kind of like the Warlords that people were talking about a while back?

Sorry if I'm way off on this, I've never even seen a real Ms Pac, just played it in Mame, so I thought that it would be a simple on/off switch.

I think the extra leaf just gives the back contact strength and a bit more resiliancy.    Not sure what you are refering to on Warlords, it was a spinner/paddle game.

torez:
He says that the motherboard is just like a game cartridge in the newer games.  LOL   Well, a cartridge still has to plug in to a computer interface to make it work.  If mobo was a cartridge, where would you plug that cartridge in, to the on/off switch???  :laugh2:
BobA:
He also called the pots used for adjustment "switches" and put his fingers very close to HV with the unit turned on.  Entertaining but not alot of knowledge.
