    I have a weird and wonderful idea,
    I hooked my PS2 to my donkeykong to see what the picture is like.
    It was lovely:D
    Really nice,hence im keeping it.
    So that got me thinking.
    Imagine a CP with an 8way stick 4 buttons (/\,[],O,X) and Start and select .
    So you could play any shump.
    But now imagine the panel had 2 PS2 ports flush mounted into it.
    so you could bang in two controllers if needed.
    I might try make it look like a DK panel so it doesn't spoil the overall look of the cabinet.
    Maybe I could hack one of these to make 2 flush mounted ports?

    Any ideas or opinions?

    If you used PS2 controller extension cables you'd have a bit less hacking to do and you can connect them directly to the PS2 if its inside the cab.

    I'd second all of the above, controller extension lead, but in a different cab!

    UNLESS... you could flush mount those ports on the underside of the CP, so that they're out of sight?

    Its this your way of admitting you suck at DK and are looking to repurpose the cab :)

    No! Never!
    I needed a shump fix and fortunately the ps2 has loads with tate mode built in.
