There is one genre of game where I am sure that emulation is no substitute for the real thing: Lightgun games. To actually have a physical gun in your hand and point it and bad guys on-screen is better than wielding a mouse or trackball.

I've been drooling every time I visit the link below. The thought of using a nifty PSX gun (and not paying hundreds for an arcade unit), and playing the actual arcade game on PCB has me pumped. I have a couple of questions, though...

1. Where on earth does one get these PCB's? www.google.com doesn't tell me squat, and eBay never has any gun game PCB's sitting bare.

2. Anybody else have experience to share? If these games can be played on an S-Video TV without too much hassle, that would be cool.

3. Anybody have a Panther VII PSX lightgun? :-)
