Yeah, changing per game isn't that big of a deal and takes 30 seconds a single time. As I play each 4-player game I even go through the setup of making them 1 2 3 4 on the board and it only takes a minute. |

Here is the one I'm working on for that exact reason. http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,142097.0.html |

You'd need things mapped differently for a 2 player game. Otherwise player 2's left joystick is still messing with P1's controls. Maybe I misunderstood what you were trying to accomplish. I thought you wanted the option of standing centered with the screen when only playing a one player game. |

Most people seem to do a pretty similar setup for a 2-player dual-stick CP. Here's my entry into the mix: |
