well it depends what you wanna do, you could probably put a joystick to the left of the Tball and put buttons to the right, so itd be a 1 player cab only but youll have trackball and joystick with a full button layout. or you could take that CP off and build a bigger one to sink in, thats probably what im going to do im getting a robocop cab and the CP is almost the same shape are yours, and its not big enough for the controls i wanna put in |

Call me crazy, but that CP looks to be just about the perfect shape/mold for turning it into a 3-in-1 rotating CP, ala http://www.1uparcade.com That's what I'd do with it. :) |

I'll have to call you crazy Mushmouth. ;) It's not a full sized cabinet :( It's only 5' 2" (hope I got the ' & " right). And there is no where near enough clearance between the control panel and the screen. But that would be cool to try on a full size cab. I think I'm gonna remove the trackball and build a new control panel for it. The trackball doesn't seem real smooth to the roll so it's gone. I think I'm going to go for the standard 2 player, 6 button each controller set up, but nothing is set in stone... |
| Auntie MAME:
Take the trackball apart, a little cleaning is all they usually need. I'd go for the one player/trackballl configuration. Missle Command/Centipede ain't the same w/o a trackball. |

Just add a joystick to that panel, believe me, you are not gonna properly reproduce a curved metal control panel like that. |
