Title: Wiring up xbox to jamma cabinet - help required coin ops 5 Post by: lesoleil70 on January 18, 2014, 06:06:43 pm Hi,
I'm probably collecting a jamma cabinet tomorrow, two player, three buttons per player and two player buttons. I'm seriously thinking of putting xbox classix running coin ops 5 inside the cabinet, i've seen a timer pcb on ebay that converts the xbox player 1 and 2 controllers over to the jamma cabinet, and the AV to the monitor. If coinops is used with a standard xbox controller, say you want to play pacman, you coin up and select 1 player using the start and back button. How would I go about emulating this with the jamma cabinet setup when the buttons will be assigned already. Just can't get my head round this one, do I use the coin door and the 1p button? Do I go drill crazy and just put buttons everywhere. Should I forget the idea and settle for a 60 in 1?

if your gonna go coinops bypass the whole jamma thing. you may just pad hack the original controls then add a seperate smaller board with buttons and pad hack the rest of the buttons . this would be used for settings and stuff that the other buttons are needed for. prolly sit it inside the coin door . they actually sell a wire or adaptor for an xbox that converts A/V to RGB or VGA . dont buy that 30 dollar universal converter it sucks. |
