I'm finalizing my CP design and want to start spending the money -- but I want to make sure I"m not jumping to any crazy conclusions ..
Can I wire 2 joysticks together (8 way and 4 way) so they both act as "Player 1" ? Same thing with buttons? Is that no big deal or am I a complete dolt?

Yep no big deal. Just run both wires to the same post on the ipac.

Yes, same thing. Plus you can either run a wire from both joysticks to the input of the mini-pac, or you could daisy chain the two sticks together, whichever is easier for you.
