LCD and Light Guns? Possible yet?
« on: February 10, 2013, 08:01:03 pm »
I was really planning on making a 4 player console for my MAME setup but I have decided to go down to two player and thought it would be cool to take the money saved on the 4P setup and put it toward a light gun setup...but is it even possible?

Thanks,
Rich

There are quite a few solutions out there for LCD use.  The arcade guns through ultimarc are popular as is the topgun3.  You can also use wiimotes though the pairing can be difficult.  I'm working on using positional guns for my current build, these are basically big gun shaped joysticks and work with any monitor.
