This most likely uses the same sonic technology if I understand what your tlaking about correctly. Does it send signals to a reciever? What does the reciever look like? And most importantly cna you hook two up to the same pc and is it 2000/xp comp? If you can find a link send it over and I'll do some research.

: There's a new wireless joystick I've seen at Fry's or somewhere that might work as a hack. It looks like a clear flight stick with no base--you just hold it up in the air in front of you. It has positional detectors inside that can measure the tilt of the handle.

: You might be able to hack it into a toy gun with some work. It's battery powered, but I'm sure you could hack in a line from an AC adapter that runs back to the cabinet, protected with flex-tubing. If it supports mouse emulation, it should work in any Mame game with crosshair support.

: I don't know if the gunsights would be accurate at all, but may be worth a shot.
