The biggest problem I've found is automatically pairing the wiimote to the pc when you boot up. It's a pain to have to pair it manually each time you power up your cabinet.

But that linked article does have a lot of good info in it. I'll be rereading it thoroughly...


Hyperfan:

Its been sudgested to me this is the best mame pc cabinet option for guns? would you agree or are there better alternatives?

I had a topgun 1 but no longer works with vista.

Best option for guns?  Maybe...never tried.  I've used GunCon2's for a while and don't have too many complaints.  I can play through glass and be as close or far as I want.  The guns that use sensor bars require that you stand a minimum distance back to work.  I suspect they would track better overall, but I wouldn't want to be ~5 feet back in order to play.  But hey, if you already have the stuff it's worth a try.  It costs nothing to plug it in and try the software...
