: Being a gun game fan (I just love to shoot stuff), I'd love to be able to play the "controller" style gun games, like Terminator 2. I know that mame emulates a few of these games. These games use a special kind of controller. Is it basically a rotary joystick?

I don't know where you get the idea of a rotary joystick, but you can get right in and play most lightgun games supported in Mame with your mouse/mice.

There have been some PC lightgun systems (Act Labs) that look promising, but the few reports I read on people trying to use them with Mame describe dismal results.


: If they are just rotary joysticks then it wouldn't be too hard to rig up a plastic toy machine gun on top that you could either adjust to point at the cursor or somehow line the cursor up with a mouse perhaps.

Be our guest and make yourself a lightgun pioneer! :-)
