Hardware Notes : Hardware is made up of a Konami main board (a bit like Viper) containing a couple of Konami chips, a flashROM, a couple of CPLDs and a heat sinked Toshiba TMPR3927.
On top of that on another metal platform is a standard PS2 main board (the original PS2, old type square board) with the standard PS2 video cable plugged into it and into the main board, plus a power cable coming from the main Konami board into it and a small cable coming from the PS2 front connection board in a tiny connector joining to a connector on the main board. The front controller/memory card ports are present and in one of them is a Sony Magic Gate card which no doubt has a 16M flashROM and a secured PIC. Main game is stored on a 128M CF card which plugs into the Konami main board

This hardware is based on Sony PlayStation 2

Notes : Originally called Mocap Golf, this is a superb game where you swing your sensor as a club. It works very well and was by far the best game I played at the 2002 ATEI show as a prototype machine.
