Welcome to BYOAC ---OLD--- Wiki - Build Your Own Arcade Controls

YOU ARE ON THE OLD WIKI

 

This is online only for posterity. Use http://wiki.arcadecontrols.com/ for the current site

The BYOAC Wiki is one of three main sections of the Build Your Own Arcade Controls website, which primarily (but not exclusively) concerns itself with building or buying authentic arcade controls and connecting them to your computer to play arcade style games with real arcade controls instead of a keyboard or mouse. Read "What's this all about?" to learn how the Wiki section of BYOAC came about and what it's for, or if you're already familiar with Wikis then dive right in! A full index of the site is located at the Index page.
