You might also consider not angling the player 3 and 4 joysticks - real arcade games (Gauntlet, Simpsons etc) didn't do this, and using your setup you'll find it impossible to play 2 player games where both players need 2 8-way joysticks (like Smash TV etc). |

I think the "angling 3rd/4th players controls" thread has been done to death. My usability tests show that players 3/4 want it angled. You do bring up a good point though about 2 player Smash TV being unplayable. Oh well. SOL. I never played Smash TV, so I'm not going to sweat that one. Any other simultaneous two player, two joystick games I'll miss out on? |

After reading all about that thread about angling sticks.. i went to my local arcade and played the simpsons on the 4th stick... DO NOT ANGLE... you would be surprised how hard it is to play on an angled stick. |

Up was always point north towards the monitor. |
