The plexi on the cp is actually held down firmly by the buttons. its fine that way and the sides of the plexi have the t molding so the plexi can't get snagged on anything and pull up.
I actually have a regular Street fighter style CP too but its ugly. If I need to switch, its easy because it has its own IPAC and everything. Playing all games besides MK series pretty much sucks on the MK CP. High Kick and High Punch are buttons 1 and 2.
