Frank has completed the first finished production model Sentinel Supergun, serial #001. Superguns are devices which allow you play arcade game PCBs on TVs, essentially “consolizing” the boards into stand-alone systems.

Superguns allow you to attach real arcade game PCBs to televisions for gameplay. A new budget oriented supergun has emerged, the Parsec.
