The Punchout Interactive Interface Improved

Step 2 The Back of the Head

One problem with a punchout dummy, is that you need one button for each side of the head, but in the NES game, punchout, it requires that you hit both the UP button and either A or B button in order to punch to the head. So in order to make that happen, I had to modify a regular arcade button by attaching together TWO microswitches so that when the button is pressed down, it actually is pressing down two buttons. This was actually easier than I expected. I used a couple screws to attach the microswitches together and then used hot glue to keep them in place in the arcade button.
