Veinman:

Looks pretty slick!

Most 4 player control panels work like AlanS17 states

See here.

From what I understand it's mostly a preference thing. But it wouldn't hurt for you to go to an arcade and play a 4 player game from spots 3 and 4.

I don't think there are any original 4 player arcade games with control panels shaped with 45 degree angles.

AlanS17:

The only sie-scrolling game I've ever played with angled controls was Bad Dudes in a Data East cabinet. Good game, but awful angle. I'm thinkit was ther mostly for the design aspect, because it actually detracted from game play rather than enhanced it.

I stand corrected.  Learn something new every week, huh!?!   Sounds like control panel builders here have done both ways, but almost all of the original 4-play arcade games all pointed up toward the screen.

Hey, doesn't matter to me, I'm just building a 2 person control panel.  I only have one friend.   :'( :'( ;)
