Do you label your buttons?

Whatever you say.

He's right, art lebedev shipped quite a few, they are already in development of a second version, not to mention the smaller Mini Three and all the concepts.

Mind you, an OLED in a button is quite useless. Well unless it was a coin/Start/Shift kinda thing. I feel that 99 times out of 100 the colored buttons do just fine.

Is there a source or resource for this? Like, can you download a bunch of images, and sit them in a subdirectory to be automagically accessed each game?

i forget if its hyperspin or emumovies (i think its emu), you can download all the CP Button layouts.  I know this because I have them

I had an idea to try and use a projector under the CP. Think of a rear projection TV. So that the panel could change on a per game basis, specifically around the buttons, to help indicate the buttons function. Technically it is possible, but I also felt the illuminated controls did a fine job. If only you could drill holes in a flat panel screen (and have it still work), that'd be awesome for a dynamic control panel!
