fatherpain's Smash TV/Total Carnage/Robotron Multi-jamma set-up

[gprotein]

Thanks again m_mcgovern! Its pretty neat seeing the interest in SmashTV's possibilities. If anyone would like more detailed pix to duplicate any portion of this I will gladly take more pix. There's ton's of space inside SmashTV... To add additional pcbs, I might try adding a shelf or something, haven't had time to investigate.

Here are games that could be put in addition to smashtv:

total carnage
robotron
cloak and dagger (may have to track this down now, heh)
crazy climber
crazy climber 2
tapper

karate champ is a no because its vert. Too bad because its has 4 joysticks just like smashtv
I'm also contemplating berzerk/with frenzy zpu due to the sheer size of the boardset. jammatized pcb is currently mounted on a piece of plywood, its so huge. Itd probably fit nicely inside smashtv, but would require adding a button to the cp, which probably wouldnt be cool. I suppose it could fire using the P1 2nd joystick but that might not feel right as opposed to a button.

Any other game ideas come to mind?

Tom, since Tapper is playable, how about Timber?

I have no idea...I've had 2 smashtv cabs and theyve both had that logo. Mebbe Williams sold advertising rights to motorola...at the time the game came out I think Motorola was the big dog of pagers, lol.

Why is there a motorola logo with the williams?

I was just going to suggest that. This is gonna be one costly multi. I believe I will be doing mine with the 6 in 1 jamma adapter.

holy cow...I didn't know Timber was a 2 joystick game...darn it my gaming budget is way overstretched...gonna have to keep an eye out for a Timber boardset now...thanks alot buddy ;P

Lol... Sorry, Tom. Not only it is a 2 joystick game, but also a 2-player simultaneous game, just like SmashTV and Total Carnage. Persoanlly, I think it is more fun than Tapper.

Motorola symbol?!?

That is a W......as in Williams.

 

[jeffsgames]

too bad Lost Tomb is vertical. The gameplay would fit right in.
