SmashTV + Total Carnage + Mike's Double Jamma

[Tubular Gearhead]

I did the same thing with a double MK i built, but i would recommend putting a fan on them since they are so close together and while the game is on, both boards are powered at the same time. You did a very nice job, they Look great!!!!

I spaced the PCB's about the same as most factory multi-pcb setups (not too close together), and there is lots of airspace in the cab so it should be fine- but I agree, a fan is always a good idea.

Assuming you have the 4-player version, will be a bit more work from what I've seen others do. There is a multi-kick harness PCB I believe you'll need also. I can't reall say if Mike's is better or same as other 2in1 jamma switchers (although just got another cab fished with Arkanoid & ROD, so will find out), but it works nicely and includes an extension harness



Me too (both in one cab - lol), only a week away!

thanks for the info. I agree, less is probably more and a switch for smash to total carnage would be best.

I have a dedicated trog (4 player) and dedicated smash tv. I figured the player 3 and 4 would be an issue for trog. But since trog 1 is so hard to play I would probably just do it for show.

I tried the cheap 2-1 and it would not boot with Total Carnage. YMMV though. I bought it through Holland Computing and they were nice enough to refund my money.

I have a 6-1 I'm going to install next because I also want to play Robotron (JROK) on the cabinet.
