It's a preference thing, but I would mock it up in cardboard and test, before making the wood version. |

I think you would be better off using the 49ways as P1 and P2. Those are the players that will use all the different modes. I don't think any playable games that use a 49way are more than 2 players. Paul |

One thing you might want to do is go to a local arcade or movie theater (if there's one around you) and try out a game of NBA Jam or NFL Blitz or something else which uses the 49 way sticks to see how you like the feel. For the P360, if you already are familiar with the Happ Super, just imagine it as even smoother and a little more accurate (not sure if accurate is the correct word, sensative maybe?) since the P360 lacks the microswitches. You might just switch to all 49 ways or all P360's :) Sorry if I just confused things for you. I like the layout you have but think you'd probably want the 49's as 1&2. Of course, you can always move them. Not like it's a permenent mounting ;D |

Paul --- End quote --- oh, i figured i'd be able to change those games to think the p1 input is the p3 controls, and p2 = p4 controls, am i wrong with that thinking? --- End quote --- You're not wrong in your thinking (you can do it the way you are planning). I think it's more a question of "Are the P360's THAT much better than the 49ways for fighters?" and if so - "Is slightly improved control in fighters worth more awkward gameplay in classic games?" If both answers are yes, than you are on the right track. If either answer is no, than take Paul's suggestion. |
