Freestanding NOVA CP idea...give me feedback!
pezkore:
Ok, so here is my latest out-there idea for my GT (which i came up with when i was stoned, so it may not be realistic). I want to take a Golden Tee Control panel and box it in to the point that it is as high as a CP would be on a cabinet. This would be freestanding. Inside of it, i would hook up a MAS super NOVA that is connected to a GT 99 board. Then, i would just wire the trackball and buttons into the nova and run the cords from the nova to my TV, that way, I could play GT in my living room on my roomates 60 in TV rather than on my puny 19in cab. My only concern about this is that i would not be able to wire the controls into the NOVA, other than that it seems like a pretty appealing option

Attached is a copy of my sketch (i hope this works)

what the hell is a super nova?
Make your own gt style cp
Use a PC with tv out
GT PC

the super NOVA system basically is everything required to play a Jamma game, minuse the board, with TV hookups. so you casn attatch a jamma board to a NOVA hook it up to your TV, and play that way without a cab. It would be much cheaper for me to get a NOVA than to get a PC to put in the bottom of this thing.

I don't see why it wouldn't work. Just make sure the base is stable enough that you can't knock it over when you slam the trackball.
