Ah, AT LAST, it is done!!!!!
Wish I had a digital camera so I could post a picture of my 2 player controller. She ended up with 2 happs Competition joysticks with six buttons to the right of each stick. 1 dedicated pac-man/galaga stick in the center with one button for fire/jump/etc..
It works like a charm and I'm so glad I decided to build it!!! Thanks to everyone on the board for all your help and advice. I'm in arcade heaven
