Title: Tekken 2 kick harness
Post by: Raven.. on December 21, 2004, 12:04:01 am

Has anyone tried building their own Tekken kick harness?  Sure I can buy one, but this IS BYOAC after all....  It looks like an old 5 1/4 floppy drive edge connector on a ribbon cable should work (with a slight mod).

The kick harness for Tekken 2 is a 48 pin connector(according to my manual). The one for a floppy is only going to be 34 I believe.

I saw a page somewhere when someone just rerouted to kick harness wires over to unused pins on the jamma connector.



Just a few jumper wires and done.

Later,

Right.  I cut two of them to make the full length.  I haven't wired it up to the buttons yet though.....to cold in the garage to mess with right now!

you can find them brand new on ebay for around $15US or so from time to time.

I'm just doing the jumper wire method on mine.
