This should be compatible with a wider range of sticks.

...with 49-ways perhaps?

do we have any pricing ranges yet on teh repro tron sticks?

1UP · « **Reply #83 on:** March 20, 2005, 04:25:37 pm »

So close, and yet so far...

I went up to the factory yesterday to get some pictures of the cab (finally). I spent several hours there, then headed out for the long drive home...and left my camera in the plant!

I have to go back Monday for a meeting, so I'll have pictures for sure on Monday night...provided someone doesn't kick the camera off the workbench.

WOW! I think it looks better than the renders! The colors are a lot more vibrant in the photo. Fantastic job on graphics!

BTW, not to appear stupid, but why the 8th button?

Yes, the full system does.

Very, very awesome, the whole kit is well out of my price range, but I might be down for just a control panel assembly if you ever offer those separate.

They're pretty good. A little stiff right out of the box, but if you take the springs out, they feel pretty much like the volcano buttons. Gotta have at least one panel with lit buttons though.

its a shame those tron sticks dont glow

SNAAKE · « **Reply #102 on:** March 24, 2005, 11:21:57 am »

Eh..you might wanna get rid those buttons right below the 6 button setup.Everything else looks great keep up the good work !

SteveJ34 · « **Reply #103 on:** March 24, 2005, 11:27:54 am »

Have any of these been sold yet?

Change Game and Show Controls. All the panels have these. Change Game is just a dedicated exit button that quits back to the FE, and Show Controls brings up a screen that displays the buttons used in the currently selected game.

The extra buttons are for consoles. They also allow you to use a Neo Geo layout, and give you properly located Hyperspace/Shield/Smartbomb buttons for Asteroids, Asteroids Deluxe, Defender, etc. They aint goin nowhere!

Looks AWESOME!!!

I'm first in line for the tron sticks!!!!

BTW, Congrads on your first couple of sales!!!

Haha! You hear that snake!

If you can disable them then it's all good..

Looks great, 1UP. I can't imagine the amount of work you put into getting this off the ground, but the results look like it was worth it.

I bet width is more of in issue. If I remember the plans (if they are even close to the same as the original plans that is) you need to take an inch from each side. Then you have the issue of 4way in the middle and making sure you can use it. My only comment might be adding a few buttons for the 4way itself. But the layout I think is great.

I've tried a layout similar to this (only one on the bottom) and I kinda liked it...

Then I tried a double 8...

Now I removed the extra button on the top far right because I never use it..

I don't rest my palm on fighting games anyway, so I think it's going to be a matter of taste, but probably a moot point anyway. Someone that is planning on buying a $5k arcade machine, I don't think they're going to be discriminating enough to know the difference, otherwise, they'd be buying about 7 dedicated machines for the same price and have the exact perfect controls. Im' sure that the market for this is going to be a basement toy for folks that aren't necessarily serious gamers.

Yeah but why not just make straight 8 button layout
That way you can use the 6 button setup for streetfighter and other 2 buttons for something useful.Why does the extra 2 buttons has to be where you put your palm ?? Its very incomfortable ya know.Anyway,I am only giving you ideas on improving your fighter panel layout

As Lilwolf said, there are space constraints that prevent putting two extra buttons on the ends. The bottom row can easily be used as a Neo Geo/Soul Calibur 2 type layout with the extra buttons. Also, unless you have very small hands, your should be able to rest your palms over the extra buttons without touching them. In fact, your thumb rests between the bottom two buttons, because they are offset from the rest.

If someone who is actually a customer doesn't want the extra buttons, we'll just take them out, no biggie. But I think because this machine is intended to be a multi-platform cab with console compatibility, I don't want to limit customers by removing buttons that may be needed for certain games.
