Title: Newbie I-pac question
Post by: Blot12345 on April 06, 2003, 08:14:13 pm

I am going to start to build a mame cabinet and I am debating wether or not to get an I-PAC4. However Im not sure if i could hook up 4 players with at least 4 buttons. If any one has used an I-PAC4 with a 4 player cp and was able to play without any problems please let me know. THANK YOU!

Just count how many connections you need.
Ex:
Each Joytick needs 4 inputs
How many buttons you need total.
According to your liking.
4 Player Joystick is 16 total inputs
a total 16 total buttons for player ( 4 each)
Player Starts need 4
Trigger for Coins 4
what else you need ?
The IPAC4 has 56 inputs so according to the MATH, you got it made.

If you want a 4 player you really have no choice (and the IPac 4 will be PERFECT)
