Title: FS/T: 49-ways, GPWiz49, Act Labs Gun, Character LCD, WICO 8-way, More!
Post by: jfunk on September 18, 2006, 01:25:31 pm
I've decided not to use my 49-ways for my arcade cab.  I'm going in a different direction.

SO, I have the following for sale:

4 49-way joysticks (all working, good cosmetic condition, washers included)
1 GPWiz49 MAX (working) - including usb cable, instructions, etc.
1 COMPLETE/UNHACKED NFL Blitz control harness

I'll also throw in the IDE cable I hacked up to test the 49-ways and the GPWiz49..  :)

The 49-ways are used, and the GPWiz49 has only been used to test the 49-ways  :)

The harness will be great to either use on an existing Blitz cab or to hack up to attach to more 49-ways.  It's got all the connections for 4 49-way joysticks and their accompanying buttons.

NEW ADDITIONS:

- 'New Style' Act Labs Light Gun - VGA version - hardly used, but working great
- 24x8 character lcd - like new works great
- Push spinner - currently untested, apparently geared SOLD
- WICO 8-way leaf switch joystick, red bat top - currently untested

The character LCD works great with Silver's 'LCD Gen' files..  Can be used to display game instructions...  I'll include a serial cable and my 'power cable' that'll hook to a PC power supply..

The spinner SHOULD work.  I just haven't bothered to figure out the pinouts, yet, to try it..  It was an impulse buy.  Has an interesting feel to it..  Pictures should help explain it. SOLD

The WICO came with a munged CP that I'm redoing for a current project.  I've never had one before, so ask any questions you have and I'll try to answer them.  Hasn't been tested because I haven't had a chance to desolder the cut wires and hook it up using my quick disconnects..

And some prices:

- 2 49-ways, 1 GPWiz49, Blitz harness, IDE cable 'test harness':  $75 shipped
- 2 49-ways: $40 shipped
- Act Labs Gun: $75 shipped
- Character LCD: $50 shipped
- Push Spinner: SOLD
- WICO 8-way: Make offer

I'll try to get more pics up, today or tomorrow..

Things I'm looking for:
- 21" or larger (PREFERRABLY larger) SVGA monitors, working
- PS/2 KeyWiz Max, KeyWiz Eco (No Solder), or IPAC2 encoder
- Tapper 'tap' control  :)
- Nintendo Vs. boards/games

Let me know if you have questions!!

Thanx!

Honestly, I think it's too much.  I bought 4 used 49-way sticks on ebay for $30, and the interface is only $35 new.  No idea about the harness, but I doubt it's worth too much.

My $.02.  Good luck!

All brand new from Groovygamegear.com

49 way joystick : $32.95 x4 = 131.80
49 way wiring harness : $12.95 x4 = 51.80
GPwiz49 MAX : $34.95 x1 = 64.95

Shipping: Approx. $10

Grand total NEW: $258.55

$120 is a good price for what you are getting.

If you seriously got 4 49-ways for $30 on ebay, then you either bought junk parts or you got a super awesome deal.

Just wanted to put this in perspecitve.

Wow.  $30 for 4 is an INCREDIBLE price.  You'll be lucky to find that, again, I think..?  Unless they've dropped in price a bunch, lately.

The wiring harness is 'priceless' to someone who doesn't know other ways to do the wiring  :)

Anyways, I'll keep it at this price, though.  Willing to entertain offers and possibly split things.  Just let me know  :)

Thanx!

I looked at the receipt, and I actually got FIVE of them for only $25.  Maybe I did get an awesomely good deal, but they're definitely not junk, I'm using them now.  I actually like the Midway sticks quite a lot more than the new Happ's repro's.

In any case, just adding my perspective/experience.  Good luck with the sale!

No problem  :)  Anyone who got a deal like you got DESERVES to think I'm overcharging  :D

Quick question on the gpwiz49, so I would only need the one to handle 4 sticks?
I was thinking I would need 1 gpwiz per stick, but the site info is a little unclear...

1 for each stick.  I'd only managed to accumulate 1 so far (a present)...

Thanx!

OK, $110 shipped.  Any takers?

Or, I can split..  Will probably split like this:

2 49-ways, GPWiz49, wiring harness in one set.

2 49-ways in the other set.

I'll think about pricing, but let me know if anyone's interested.

Thanx!

I still recommend stripping the 49 way harnesses out of the blitz wiring harness. One 49-way harness is worth more than the entire blitz harness sold as a unit.
Silly, huh?

Hoping to add some more stuff this weekend..  Including a 'new style' act labs gun (working) and a push-spinner (currently untested)..

We'll see if I get time to get pics and pricing..

Pictures added at the top and some more here..

Notice the LCD still has the screen protection on it and the Act Labs gun still has it's packaging and instructions  :)

Thanx!

Do you have any more info on the spinner? What game it is from? Also, do you have the wiring harness for it? I'm guessing not, but figured I'd ask to clarify. I don't even see a plug for the wiring harness on the spinner board.

Post by: jfunk on October 11, 2006, 01:16:46 pm
Nope, no other information or wiring harness..  Sorry.

If you look at 'spinner2.jpg', you can see the white 4-prong plug on top of the circuit board.

Thanx!

Yes, over a year old.  Yes, still for sale  :)

I should probably test it, again..  It's been sitting in a box for that entire year..  I'm sure nothing's happened to it, but would hate to sell non-working gear..

Just so you know, you've caught me at the busiest I've been in months.  I'll try to find it, but it's somewhere in my basement.  If you're looking for a super-fast turnaround, I might suggest looking somewhere else.  I'd love to 'reduce my collection' some, but..  I've got things I have to get to...  :)
