Button layouts for various arcade games
« on: July 27, 2003, 03:47:04 pm »
I don't suppose there are any sites out there that document in any way the control panel button layouts that various arcade games use?  Not just the number of buttons, but also their arrangement on the panel.  I've been looking, but haven't been finding.

If there's no such place,  at the moment I'm trying to find arcade button layouts for Virtua Fighter 3tb & 4, and Power Stone 1 & 2.  Anybody here familiar with them?

Thanks

There's a page on this very website:

http://www.arcadecontrols.com/arcade_controlpanels.shtml

Don't think it has the particular games you're looking for, though.

Smitdogg did a bunch also, but I don't know if these are his or not

Try getting a Dreamcast arcade stick and tracing over its layout. I have alot of VF freak friends and they all modded DC sticks for the PS2 so we could use them in out VF4 Evolution sessions.

Thanks for the links guys.  There's some good stuff there. (even though without the games I was looking for at the time...)

Incidentally, shortly after giving up on what I was looking for, I was searching for something else and came upon System 16 - The Arcade Museum, which happened to have most of what I was looking for, with flyers and cabinet pictures of those particular games.

There's quite a bit of information at that site, I'm surprised I haven't encountered it before.
