If you can't do it with the decorum I've requested in the rules (if you haven't read the rules, read the damn things - http://arcadecontrols.com/arcade_message_rules.html), you need to take a step back. I don't care whose dick is bigger. If you're here to pick fights, get the frack off my forum.

Make your points without belittling the other party. If you can't do that, the problem lies with the person you see in the mirror.

I know the above was unnecessary because everyone here can have civilized discourse. Never mind me - thanks everyone!

So while I wait for the last needed bit to arrive (sata cable for hard drive I forgot derp), I'll ask: What's generally considered the minimum width for a control panel for two players? I'm still yet undecided as to what it's going to be playing, but while I'm waffling I might as well see what that option entails.

SavannahLion:

There's no real right answer. Do you and your friends weigh less than 200lbs each or do each of you have your own zip code?

TorgoHiggins:

A fair question. :lol

I guess it doesn't really matter. Since my hardware is all pretty small, I can always compensate a wider control panel with a machine that's not quite as deep. Main reason I really ask is because my doorway is only 25 inches wide (28 if I take the door off), so I have to account for that in anything I might build. ;)

 :laugh2: -- another consideration - Are you going to have a trackball or spinner also or just the joysticks and buttons (need quite a bit more width if going with a trackball)
