What is a SuperGun?
Posted: Mon May 29, 2006 10:57 pm
In one of our early episodes 1 or 2, I can't remember anymore, I mentioned a "SuperGun". Basically it is a way of hooking real arcade boards up to a standard television.
The only catch is that it typically only works with "JAMMA" boards. These are typically for games from 1985 forward. So, many of the classics aren't JAMMA, although JAMMA converters are available for fairly cheap.
Anywho, RetroBlast! recently published an article describing the SuperGun that is worth a read if you are wondering what these devices are, what they look like, etc.
