Follow along with the video below to see how to install our site as a web app on your home screen.

Dozens of ways to do it. No "plug and play" solution unless you want one of those crappy x-arcade things. The old way was to just hack a keyboard, but the easy way these days is to just get a standalone keyboard encoder like an i-pac and go from there. It's pretty simple.
But, then again, we mostly deal with fixing classic games here, not trashing them for emulator things. There might be some other forum out there that could help you Build Your Own Arcade Controls, however.

Ian,
Thank you for the ipac reference. I will research it further. Also, I bought the cabinet brand new; it was made from scratch (link below).

I'm not exactly sure what your trying to do, but If I understand correctly and you just need to plug some arcade controls into your PC.
You need one of these! http://www.lizardlick.com/Toodles-Cthulhu-for-PCPS3_p_543.html
It's pretty much like an ipac, but cheaper and simpler, and it's totally plug and play on windows and shows up as a USB gamepad. They are made for making custom joysticks for PS3/PC (yes, they are plug and play on PS3 also) so if you want more than one player you'll need two of them. I don't think they support trackballs or anything crazy, but for a joystick and a ton-o-buttons they work wonders.
