Xbox interface
bigmiekoz:
I am building some cabinets powered by Xbox. I am looking for an interface board that I can use to connect the Xbox console with with the arcade controls. I found one through X-Arcade. Are there any other options.
Thanks

Make your own via a gamepad hack. I can find XBox controllers locally for around ~AU$11 (~US$8.40). At that price, ripping them to pieces to make 2 joystick interfaces for a cabinet is pretty cost effective.

If it is just the controls you are looking to do, I'd suggest the X-Arcade route. The setup will let you do both Analog and Digital via a button press which toggles between modes. The Ultimarc route while seemingly cooler will cost you alot more to do the same thing considering all the pieces you'd need to purchase and it doesn't help that Ultimarc perpetually seems to be out of some of the pieces.
If you need to also interface it with a 15Khz monitor, Ultimarcs solutions seems really cool, but again they are out of stock on the parts.

As they are new products (& probably quite popular) I expect it will take a while for things to become as available as the other products we are used to (IPAC etc..).
