Exit button. Any ideas?
<< < (3/6) > >>
JustMichael:
I use the same button to enter the game from the frontend and exit back to the frontend.  As for the pause button, your bladder will thank you for it.  ;D

I'm not sure what your cabinet design is, but on my design I couldn't spare the extra room for exit and pause buttons on my control panel so I put them in an over under fashion to the left of the coin door kind of like a pinball start button would be

My black cab uses P1+P2 together to exit. My Donkey Kong has 2 buttons wired in series above the marquee on each top corner.
jsb98:
Put your exit button in a different colour from the rest, red is the most obvious for exit. It's the sort of colour that you look at and think "I don't know what it does, but I probably don't want to find out because it could be something bad", meaning your friends are unlikely to try and press it during playing. Put it in the top-middle between Player 1 and Player 2, but make sure to have them far apart if you do that, so people don't accidentally hit exit instead of Player 1. It could happen.
A pause button is definitely a good idea. Whenever I play games with friends, there's always a time when somebody wants to pause.
If you don't want a shift button, just use a combo of two buttons instead.

Good luck with your cab.

You must have more disciplined friends than me.  ;D  When we started playing my cab... I swear people acted like they were getting paid to mash buttons.
