dreamcast keyboard question
jakejake28:
i saw something about this in a previous thread, but could not find the exact thread. i have a cabinet, with an i-pac 4, and i saw somthing about a keyboard to dreamcast adaptor. would this work with my current panel ( i use ps/2) and become interchangable with my pc and dreamcast. thanx in advance.
of, i forgot. i need to play soul calibur, doa2, and virtua fighter 3 tb with joystick
tom61:
It'll work, but for only one player. You need either a Total Control 2 or a Smart Joy 2 adapter, no other adapters will work.
This is where I ordered my Smart Joy 2:

I have one that I'm not using. NEW
$10 plush shipping/h
That or you can buy a Sega DC keyboard off me as well.
I can sell you a new custom joystick also.
jakejake28:
thanks tom61, but does that mean that even with the smart joy 2 i could still use just one player. wouldn't i be able to use as many buttons as there are keys, even if 4 keys are assigned to the joysticks.
and armad1ll0, i really appreciate the offer, but no thanks, i already have a control panel, and i will buy that new if it works to my purpose.

no that shouldn't work. The Dreamcast is looking for true controller imputs and not DC keyboard strokes for fighting games.
