| monkey puzzle:
I am going to make a trackball only control panel for my mame cab (in addition to my joystick panel). Does anybody know of any good layouts for this. I can't seem to find any good examples. Should I have 3 buttons? Where should I place the trackball, in the middle or to one side? I am right handed but am not sure which hand to use the trackball with. Never really played any trackball games at the arcade except marble madness. |

I would say that if you're only gonna have one trackball, why not put the trackball in the middle with 2 buttons on each side (paralleled). Or you can go two trackballs for the best marble madness action. |

If you want to play Missile Command, you'll need 3 buttons with the trackball on the right side. |

Oh yeah, I can't believe I overlooked that. I was trying to think of what trackball games use 3 buttons and I forgot one of my favorites. |

Ok, do you think I should have trackball in the middle with 3 buttons each side, or just trackball on right with 3 buttons to the left? |
