I can make some out of controller pcb's but it is not going to plug into the ipac.

one of those is going to be hard to find becuase they cost 4X more then what there worth really.

after adding all the different parts and adapter's up I figured it would be way too much to buy all that stuff so I saved around $120.00 and built my own.

you need a ps2 to pc adapter and dc to ps2 adapter and ps2 adapter to ipac etc. it's bunch of non sense.

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

Andy says they'll be selling them for a lot less on their site soon. Hopefully it's considerably less, because right now they're just way too high.

Yeah that would be nice.

I was going to buy one also but after I found out I needed adapter for other console's that I dont even have and a few more things on top off that I just said forget it and built my own rig.

if somebody can make a adapter for what it's worth cost wise that would be great.

Thanks for you help guys. I guess i will just wait untill andy gets his site up. Ultimarc's sister site just sells them for way too much.
