[BUILD] My PiFBA Custom Control

thak

Hi!

Now, i have too, build my own control for playing with PiFBA mostly (i will add some other emu later)
Is still rought (no paint or custom panel) but it's fully functionnal!!

I used a control interface from groovygamegear and it works like a charm.

Here some pics

Looks nice. Whats the keyhole for?

thak

Keyhole is use to lock access to the inside (with the raspberry pi, gp-wiz 40 and câble)

We played it all sunday with ftiend and their small child (3-4 years) and it's totally childproof :-D

Ho and of course i'm running pimame :-)

thak

Nop but it would be a good to have for exemple 2 different mame, one for children (with cute game) and an another one with all other game :-D
I will think about it thx ^^

Nice job there.

What exactly is PiFBA? Is this a MAME emulator that you can run the roms similar to advmame and mame4all?

johnnygal

Ahh ok, I see now, its in the latest version of PiMAME. I am still on 0.7.5 - time to upgrade and give this a go!

thak

Yep this one is really great for all cps1/2 games (i love xmen vs street!) and for some other cave games like dodonpachi :-)

thak

Yeah but the first one it's really good old memories from saturn age (with dungeon and dragon too :-) )

You did a very similar button layout to my arcade controls :)
Here is an VERY old photo I took when I first made my cabinet:

Howdy, Stranger!
