Moar Progress
Dec. 30th, 2008 10:52 pmMeh to all the pessimists. I'm happy, and no one's gonna spoil that.
My Supergun lives once again. I added a VGA connector today. The upshot of this is that any ready made VGA->BNC cable can be used to connect it to the de-interlacer.
The 2p Joystick port, as anticipated, works properly now. Tomorrow, I'll begin work on modding the 2nd joystick. Street Fighter Zero 3 ahoy.
I've been giving some thought to making real PCBs instead of stripboard eventually. It turns out that it's not that difficult:

Something to think about for Mark II. :)

I felt the inclination to play some Dreamcast shmups today, then I remembered how much the prospect of using the Dreamcast d-pad fills me with dread. The answer: A Saturn to Dreamcast joypad adapter. Woo.
