Welcome to BYOAC Wiki - Build Your Own Arcade Controls

The BYOAC Wiki is one of four 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.


Note - this is the new wiki home. The old wiki is here.
