How about a box that takes all of the X-axis outputs from 4 controllers, and
sends them to the X1, Y1, X2, Y2, and buttons 3&4 of the 4 controllers go to
11 21 32 43 12 22 32 42. (The second number on the Vectrex side represents
the controller port). This would be cool for Vectropolis, analog steering,
digital gas & brake, for 4 people. You just have to map the inputs
correctly..

John, what are the controls for the Vectropolis game? each person gets 2
digital buttons...what do you use them for, Left + Right?

Sincerely,
Brett Walach
