Ok, Seriously! This is really starting to irc me. Why hasn't there been a PC card made that allows for arcade lightgun input? My Mame cab, an Atari Area51 Site4 has it's guns just hanging there screaming to be used!!!! It can be done, Hell My cab (which still works by just swapping the video cable) is just a PC motherboard connected to another board only thru the standard PC board connections. So basically when I'm playing my Site4 I am playing on a PC with a connected daughter board that is somewhat like an Ipac just handling the inputs. I know of a guy who does build arcade repro boards and such and I am positive he could whack out a solution in a reasonable fashion if there was enough incentive to fund the run of the boards. So I think it's time that those of us that are sick of waiting should take action and come together and attempt to get something made. What do you all say? What are you willing to pay for a board that will simply allow for 2 arcade lightguns to be used on a computer? Would you be willing to front any % of that amount to help with the run of the boards? I am dead serious here! If/When I contact this guy even just to inquire what he thinks I will be refering to this thread. Maybe there should be a Poll. |

Well, I'm certainly tired of waiting. This is looking like ROR3 all over again. I've got $200 waiting, but no word yet again. Another product that can't be bought. Mr. Foley, you don't have even ONE of these in stock? Just one? Looks like a guncon hack is in my future...$#!@!!! Siris, I think a fair price for a board with just the gun inputs and none of the extra audio/control input stuff would be about $100. However, I would want to know it works, or at least exists, before I would be willing to pay for it. I'm done pre-ordering stuff that may never see the light of day. |

I wish they'd pull their finger out - it sounded like a good solution (as long as the unnecessary bloat was left out and the price reduced). Steve |
