have a 25" dedicated MK2

wondering if i can buy a Police Trainer PCB and a multijamma kit, mount 2
guns on the side of the cab and be able to play either game

any issues you guys can see?

would the angle of the monitor be bad for a gun game?

any other Jamma gun games out there?

thanks

henri

That should work fine. You can either run the guns directly to the game
board, or route them through the 'expand' connector on the MultiJAMMA and
make the gun signals available to other gun games.

Not really. You can just leave the 'extra' buttons from the control panel
going directly to the MK2 board-- they don't need to go into the MultiJAMMA.

Probably not *optimal*, but I see that Area 51:Site 4's have a tilted
monitor, so it must not be too bad.

There's quite a few-- off the top of my head; Crypt Killer, Area 51, Maximum
Force, Point Blank, Point Blank 2, Invasion, Lord of Gun, Lethal Enforcers,
Lethal Enforcers 2, Judge Dredd, Egg Venture, etc.
