Hello,

I'm new to arcade collecting having been inspired by a work colleague, thanks cmonkey. I recently bought a SuperGun and a couple of boards to start with. WWF Superstars and Chopper 1 as they were cheap, they still gave me a warm fuzzy feeling of satisfaction when I got them powered up. Something about owning original hardware. I can see this getting expensive if I'm not careful!

Welcome to UKVAC dude. Funnily enough SNK's Chopper 1 was one of the first PCBs I got

Man is it tough, even set to easy. I've not put the gaming hours in since I was at uni!

Welcome to UKVAC...

Thanks for the welcome messages. I did my first bit of hacking today to re-arrange a clone snes controller fire buttons to shoot in the logical direction for my Smash TV board on my SuperGun!

 

[cmonkey]

Cool! Awesome job! But the big question is..... did it work after you'd hacked it?

 

[T-65]

Ok I'll fess up, the first attempt ended with up, down and two identical diagonals... But the pic is from the second attempt which works great! I did slightly damage the PCB though so it may not last, but as I have a spare I will know how to do it better next time!
