I used to want a trackball and spinner. I have a trackball now but never installed a spinner. There aren't many games I really like to play that use a spinner. The trackball, on the other hand: Missile Command, Centipede, and Marble Madness. It's worth it for those 3 games alone. Though when a large group is over, simple multiplayer trackball games like bowling, horseshoes, etc. go over pretty well. It doesn't take a real arcade buff to be able to play these games and be competitive. Wade |

Also the ladies like the centipede, man... ;) For Mrs. (or miss) Odonadon's sake condsider a t-ball! (just kidding--> I get where you are coming from... and visually prefer the simplicity of just sticks and buttons on a cabinet... but my desire to have everything, and constant need to tinker/upgrade had me adding trackballs/spinners and soon removable star wars yoke... ) Rampy |

I only have a keyboard hooked into my cab :) Besides, Miss O - or Mizzo as I call her - prefers the Street Fighters and the Aero Fighters. There's no love of centipede in my house. And that's just because of the trackball. Okay, I'm kidding about that :) Plus, the ladies prefer the joysticks. :P I'll boo myself for that one. Odonadon |

--- Quote from: Tiger-Heli on June 17, 2003, 11:22:09 pm --- Main advantage is the KeyWiz will support 4-player, 3-button games and the I-PAC will only support 4-player 2-button games. NOTE: This covers everything in MAME except about 4 games, mainly Dungeons and Dragons series, which are four player, four button. --- End quote --- Is this really true? I thought the I-PAC supported up to 8 buttons, even on player 3 and 4? |

no, ipac supports 4-p 8 button controls. dunno why you need it, maybe for psx emulation and mahjong, but it does. |
