| Distance between joystick and buttons? |
| (1/1) |

I'm curious as to what is people's preferred width between joysticks and buttons. I was looking at the various templates on Slagcoin, and noticed that a lot of them (mainly the Japanese ones) put the joysticks very close to the buttons (~2 inches or so). Even the Capcom style seems close (~3.5 inches. I suppose when I was younger, it was less an issue having smaller reach. But as an adult, these seem very uncomfortable. I find I prefer about 5 inches or so of distance (center of joystick to center of closest button). What do other people find? Is there any advantage to having closer distance (ergonomics and what-not)? |

I'm comfortable with a 4.5" - 6" center-to-center distance. (Modular panel) It seems like the two factors in this are: 1. Personal preference 2. Panel width Scott |

They were usually pretty close in on real cabinets and I have never found spacing them out to actually be any more comfortable. |
