$22 usb lightgun?
« on: June 22, 2007, 02:52:44 pm »
Just wondering if anyone has used this lightgun in a Mame cab and if it works: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.5017

I've ordered things from dx before and although shipping usually takes about 3 weeks, you can't beat the prices! And for $22, I might have to get one to try out if no one know if it works or how the quality is...

Yeah, you let us know how that works...without a VGA connector!

From the looks of the pics it uses component video instead of VGA.

That's just a yellow composite video jack in the pic.
