fatherpain's Smash TV/Total Carnage/Robotron Multi-jamma set-up
I offered to post up the images of fatherpain's multi-jamma setup that lets him play Smash TV, Total Carnage, and Robotron in a Smash TV cabinet. At one point, this was my plan as I have a Smash TV cabinet myself, but then I lucked out and found a Robotron cocktail local to me.
At any rate, fatherpain uses a 2-in-1 Jamma switcher with Smash TV / Total Carnage mounted to the RHS of the cabinet (from the front) and Robotron mounted on the LHS of the cabinet. He keeps Smash TV connected to one of the switcher's channels and then manually swaps the connector from robotron to total carnage by reaching through the coin door. Here is a pic of the complete setup (and what is that...blue bubblegum holding the the volume pots in place?):
Here is a close up of the clever Robotron PCB mounting with additional standoffs to stack the Robo pcbs:
And a close-up of the RHS with Mike's 2-in-1 switcher mounted above the Smash TV pcb (that is Total Carnage in the front).
And here is everyone's dream-come-true, Robotron in 25" Glory...
Next up, he is thinking of adding Tapper...but at this point, I'll let him field any of your questions....
Thanks, for sharing the pics, fatherpain!
