Left/Right-handed control panel?
fjl:
Even though I am righthanded my left hand has better dexterity when it comes to controlling a joystick. For some reason my timing can be off if I play Ms. Pac-Man with my right hand. My right hand is better suited for button pressing.
I don't know if this developed over time or my left hand is just simply better at controls. But this is just the way things work. I once tried an arcade with the button and joystick layout reversed. Suffice to say, it was a waste of my then hard earned cash being a little kid. :banghead: :hissy:

Depends on the game...back in the day, I usually played cross handed...controling the stick with my right and the buttons with my left.

my CP is designed to handle LEFTIES or RIGHTIES. :P
I'm a righty, but control the joy w/left. Since I built my CP w/Joystick on right side of buttons (2nd Player), I had problems w/Mortal Kombat games a t first, but not anymore. I guess I told my little brain that using right hand for controls is OK ;D
Now I have become, (now what the heck is that word), dextrousity. Its like WAX on (Left hand) Wax off (Right hand). Now you see, no matter what hand I use, I get the job done :dizzy:
