Just curious, how so?

DUDE, you totally didn't get the design memo for AUTHENTIC arcade controls.  

FYI your panel should:

1) Look 90% like an X-arcade tank stick (but should not be a tankstick).
2) Use an "ergo" SF2 button layout (the kind you never saw on a SF2 machine).
3) Use Japanese joysticks (the kind you never used in a US arcade).
4) Use illuminated pushbuttons designed for video poker machines.
5) Panels cannot be 4-player (some people on this forum never have 3 friends over at once, and obviously neither should you).
6) Trigger sticks should be hidden (trackballs should not).

Follow the above to receive oohs and ahs, and deviate from them at your own peril.

 :stupid   What he said.  Don't forget "no duplicate buttons for anything"

My goal in building a cab was to.......

(1) Build something I had never done before
(2) Build a cab that would pose the question, "Where did you purchase that?"

I'll add another post build...

(3) Have people say, "Did you REALLY build that?"

All things in consideration, I would say you hit a home run.  Great build.
