The thing about this cab is it is clearly being set up for playing fighting games. Note the: -widescreen monitor for modern games like Street Fighter IV, Marvel vs Capcom 3, and Mortal Kombat 9. -specific set of buttons on the left that use a dedicated Mortal Kombat layout -the specific set of buttons on the right that mimic the standard SF layout but then everything goes to pot: -way too many buttons. It would get confusing during competitive play. It's also sort of illegal for competitive play if those buttons are wired in a way that each set of six buttons is connected to only six inputs. That would allow very quick mashing to get out of dizzies and other abusive techniques. Additionally, it allows the use of macros, which are very frowned upon when using proper arcade controls. -those damned E-sticks! What kind of fighting game player uses that junk? It's a very nice cab overall, but damn if the controls aren't screwed up. And I BET if I went to the dudes house he would criticize me for being too picky and say it works just fine for him and all his friends. gahhh |

I demand a link to the original thread, I searched for it on r/cade and I spent nearly ten minutes looking at videos about that damn Dance Maniax cab then had to suffer through some other video of some moron doing Para Para. --- Quote from: TopJimmyCooks on February 17, 2012, 07:58:26 pm ---Oh yeah, when our buds come over for some 6P XMen, lets have the cords from their gamepads drape across the top of the CP instead of plugging in underneath where God and nature intended. --- End quote --- Good eye, I thought those were casino buttons. I nominate this cab for CrapMAME 2.0. |

" Winners don't use drugs..." nor do they use that many buttons. Oh and love the solid wood marquee! :dunno |

Yeah, there really needs to be a CrapMAME 2.0. But maybe that's too harsh. Then again, maybe not? I never really understood why people build an entire cabinet body and then do absolutely nothing with it. Dude could have just built a stand-alone control panel and not have that TV surrounded by a lumberyard. Why even bother? And the buttons are ridiculous. Is Mortal Kombat so important you need to have the block directly in the vertical center? He could have added a button above that, have his precious MK layout, a workable SF layout, and that ergonomic curve that some people like - all without having to add a completely separate layout. |
