I'm just curious, what's the narrowest CP dimensions still usable for a 2 player 6 button setup at least in everyone's experience? Just 2 joys, 12 buttons. I'm constrained, let's just say that... Thanks GT |

25.5" and no less! My buddy and I both converted cabs. I used a nintendo cabinet - 21.5" and he used a Wide body - 25.5". The difference is night and day. I was bumping into him playing mario bros on my 21.5" cabinet. On his 25.5" cabinet, during the mockup phase it was clear that 4" made all the difference. While I can put 1 joystick and 6 buttons in a street fighter layout on a 21.5" panel - it wouldn't be comfortably playable by 2 average sized grown men. Here is a pic of his panel and you can see his whole cabinet at http://bleemus.spaces.live.com/ |

24" is about as narrow as you'd really WANT to go, widthwise. That is the standard measurement on classic cabs, and is a bit on the "friendly" side. |

Well, I was hoping you'd say something around 24" because unfortunately that's that size I've got to work with. I have things about as spread out as they can be, but I'm not a small guy. Maybe I need small friends, or better yet, girls! ;) |

Let us know what you think once you've built it and played on it! Good luck. |
