Minimaid without a cabinet
Posted: Mon Sep 26, 2016 2:05 pm
Long story short, I dun goofed. Despite my best efforts at measuring and my insistence that the machines will fit down stairs, movers are unwilling to take on the burden of moving DDR and Taiko into my basement. Unfortunately, a walk-out basement is out of the picture at this point. There are a few options on the table including:
1. Disassembling parts of the wood frame, then reassembling back in the basement.
2. Selling games.
3. Trying to keep the 'controllers' (DDR pads) and hook them up to a PC/TV combo.
Regarding number 3, is that something that's feasibly done using a Minimaid? Ideally, the connection would go something like Pads -> Umbilical -> ??? -> minimaid -> PC. I have enough fun playing DDR, that I'd rather have a cobbled together experience than no experience at all.
Worst case scenario, I don't have to give up the hobby because there's a really cool arcade just up the road.
