This may sound like a dumb question, but I really have no clue so please bare me <img src="graemlins/loco.gif" border="0" alt="[Loco]" />
Can any1 tell me how to setup your Hyper 64?? I'm curiouse, so you get a Hyper 64 with all the wires to plug onto your t.v?? And then you need a stick/controller to plug in... What kind of stick/controller?? A Neo Geo one?? A self made Supergun?? I've only seen a pic of DILLGAF but thats a cab. Info apriciated :) Pictures too!

To run the hyper on the TV you use a supergun, the edge conector just goes the the hyper board and the controles plug into the supergun. I have AES style sockets on my supergun so just plug in an AES stick and then I am up and running. A basic supergun is very easy to make as long as your TV can run RGB, if not it requires extra bits to convert the signal.
If you get stuck for picks post or PM me back and I will email you one of my setup when I have a few spare minutes.

Thanks for the info, I suppose I can make a supergun, but are there actually superguns for sale somehwere? I'm just looking if the H64 is worth getting. Vektorlogic has a H64 for a nice price, only need to know now where to get a Supergun or parts for it :) Might get a H64, not sure tough!

chohan, you may well find that Jeff can help you out with some of the parts for a supergun. I got a Jamma loom (which has all the wire you need and more) from him.
An arcade PSU can be easily found on ebay for £15 (if you are in the UK and get stuck for one I have a couple spare that I could sell).
Buttons and joystick ports can be bought from any general electrical suppliers.
Then all that is left is a scart lead that you wire the pins to RGB (If you need the pin-outs for the scart let me know).
Or there is Raven games in the UK that sells superguns, but it would work out far cheaper to buy the parts and make one yourself as it would not take much time once all the parts are there (I built a mini arcade cab with a philips RGB monitor in less than three days for everything, working on it for about 4 hours each day).
