RayB turned me on to this in the Disney Touch Sensor thread.  I figured it was cool enough to rate its own thread.

There is a little less than two days left on the kickstarter page.  They have already blown away their goal so it's definitely happening.  I went for the Deluxe kit and can't wait to play around with it in Mame, just hope those bananas don't have any lag.

Once I get it I'm sure I'll do something retarded and post a video on here.  I'm totally open for suggestions of what to try first.

I backed that about 10 days ago but forgot to post it too.  It's a great starter kit for these types of things.  I'm damn addicted to kickstarter lol.

Wonder if it'll have any ghosting.  If not that'll be a pretty gnarly controller input!

Edit - looks like it does have ghosting, 6 keys at a time?

I noticed that too.  Disappointing but they did say that the production unit should have improved performance across certain metrics so hopefully they close that gap a bit.  Can't wait to figure out what the hell to do with it come august-ish.
