Dual Space Gun Controllers
« on: April 19, 2008, 07:22:04 pm »
I just snagged these...


Utimately I will be constructing a modular cp so I am gathering controllers now.  I'm in the process of searching the forum for connecting these to a PC, but if anyone has any quick input let me know.  Oh... the price?  $10 for both, so I couldn't pass them up!

Where the heck do you people find these insane prices? :)

I got lucky and got them on eBay.  Right now there are two Operation Wolf guns forsale... $24 each plus shipping at the moment.  Not quite as good of a deal as these (I got lucky) but not too bad if these can be used with MAME.

I have a chance to buy a full Spacegun arcade from a local guy for $400, but I'm eying the Vapor sitdown flyer that he has for the same price.   He also has a sit down cab for Mach 3 that has the controller and all the bezel work, but the inside was gutted... he has two and is asking $150 each. 

Check around Craig's list and look for local arcade repair shops and vendors, and then there is also always eBay!

Florida is not the best place to find cabs and parts as I have seen.  I'll be in NY/NJ in a few weeks and have always had far better luck there picking rare items.

Blasted humidity must be what kills machines down here so quickly.  :timebomb:
