Not to hijack here, but.... So you are the infamous trcroyle. Infamous to me anyway. You must be building a cab with 55 interchangeable panels, or an 8 foot wide frankenpanel. Every single time I bid on some weird arcade controls on ebay, I get outbid by trcroyle. I am not talking about 3 or 4 times, either. Probably like 30 times. You will be able to play every game ever made using the original controls. I knew you had to have been a member here.

Now, I humbly bow my head and await the pictures of the cab that can play every game ever made.

Yeah, that's me  The weirder the better. And yes, it's about ten million modular panels. If I ever stop buying components I may even finish it this decade.
