| How can I build a Mame arcade and one hooked up to ps2? |
| (1/2) > >> |
| Teach:
I am just in the planning stages right now. I want to create an arcade that can be hooked up to both a PC and a Ps2. Is that possible? There are all the classic arcade games that I want to play using MaMe, but there are also a bunch of newer games that I would like to play on it that are available through the Playstation 2. Even if I have to manually open the cabinet to switch the hookups from the pc to the playstation, is this a possible idea? Any help I could get would be appreciated. I have just been doing research and I believe I understand how the pc arcade would work alone and how the ps2 alone would work, but trying to throw them both together is confusing me. Thanks a bunch for any help. |

If you hack a PS1 or PS2 controller, you can run your arcade buttons and joystick to it, and then use a Playstation to USB adapter to play it on the PC. |

I didn't know they stopped putting PS2 ports on some new PCs. Wow. |
