Hi, I want to build a custom controller to use with Mame with 2 joysticks, each with 6 buttons, and all the admin buttons like player buttons, coin buttons etc. I believe it takes around 24 contacts in total.

I want to take apart a old keyboard and use it as the controller, but I hear a lot about ghosting and blocking key problems. Has anyone successfully done this and any hints you can give me? Also any good links to good keyboard hack sites?

Thanks for all your help
