This is a Zombie Blog

Cause I'm back from the dead. Seemingly I have had a very UNproductive month. No posts for nearly four weeks... whoops. Anyway... Check this out!


I made an arcade control panel! This is just a preliminary design. I was inspired a week or two ago to play some old arcade games emulated on my computer. And what's the point of playing old arcade games without old arcade controls?

This was just step one. I plan on having a party with a bunch of friends and the goal for it is to have a setup that four people can play at once. This was made just to order some parts to make sure they were good quality and assure myself I could handle it.

If you're interested here's a picture of the inside. You can see my lazy unorganized wiring but again this was just to make sure it works. In the bottom portion of the box you can see a white and green circuit board which makes the whole thing possible and very simple to boot. Also the lovely wooden box used to be an endoscope box; it probably likes its new job better.
