Should I make my arcade stick in the style of Mortal Kombat?

How about this layout?  Just shift the center row up halfway.

NiteWalker:

That layout's decent, but not as ergonomic as those found on candy cabs (most of em anyway). The layout above looks like it assumes you're hands are at a straight angle when playing, which isn't the natural position. It's more of an arc. See the pic for what I mean.

Another good point.

My arms are usually at a 70-90° angle in relation to each other playing arcade games...

An early mock up of angled buttons. What do you think?  :dunno
