Malenko: Thanks for your input.
I really liked your background more than mine since it's actually from OutRun, but I couldn't find a high-res pic of it.
And don't mind the button colors, they are not decided yet.
The admin-buttons IS at the bottom panel. This CP artwork will be folded over the entire CP, so the 14 topmost centimeters are the top panel. It will look like this from the top:
That being said, there will be no room for a standard shifter, and if it were it would be enormous on this little cab. And I'm not sure about the idea of all the controls on one side of the wheel. But I DO see your point of the player-buttons being placed next to each other.
And to explain the 1 and 2-player buttons: This cab will also be used for playing games that requires a spinner, Arkanoid for example.
And a question: Is it possible to make ONE sequential View-button? So if you push the View-button it will loop through the different views.
Well, just keep your ideas coming folks. The final result will probably be something in between.
