I am currently building a cocktail cab and each players CP will have tstick plus + 6 buttons I regulate see here posting raving about how great the game robotron is - but that has dual joystick controls. I am wondering if it will be playable with 1 joystick + 4 fire buttons. is it feasible? or should i just get over the fact that wont be able to play this classic game on my CP |

Robotron is not playable with that setup, at least not past the first 2 levels. |

Try it out on your keyboard. Might get to level 3, but when you play with dual joys, you will definitely feel the difference. But I Just remapped the player 1 right controls in robotron to the player 2 joystick in mame, they may be a little wider apart than the original, but definitely feels pretty good. ;) Good luck... |

I have a 2 player control panel with trackball in the center and I just play with P1 Joy and P2 Joy for Robotron.....works well for me. |
