The name stems from one of my favorite songs by my favorite band.

The button layout is perfect and plays any arcade/emulator game very well (aside from some NeoGeo games.)  I think it's all about resting your fingers naturally on a control panel and your layout should be where they are resting (might not be a good idea with an 7-8 button layout.)

The next venture I am taking on this arcade project is to add original SNES controllers.  I'll be doing this by installing SNES-PC adapters flush on the cabinet to the left of the coin door.  My plan is to make it look like you are plugging the controllers into the cabinet as if it were an SNES console.  This way, you can unplug and coil them to store inside the coin door.

My reason for this is to make it easier to play longer console games (RPG's mostly).  Also, it will allow friends to pick up the controls of the game immediately, rather than learning controls on a joystick.
