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

The MK layout does suck....badly. :censored: @Arcade82: There's a lot of ways around that problem. The simplest would be molex connectors. Wire them from your PCB to a male connector and run wires from the control panels to female molex connectors. When you want to change control panels, just disconnect the molexes and reattach the other panel. Simple as pie, but not as tasty. :laugh2:....er.... :dunno.... :troll: |

The MK layout is definitely unique to the Mortal Kombat genre. I would stick with the 6 or 8 button 2-row style layout for the broadest compatibility. |

Here's my $0.02. Don't do MK setup unless you really, really, REALLY like it. *I* would not have the players & buttons at an an angle and not include angleling the sticks. |

Okay I drew them on a card board and tried both. Doesn't really feel good to play at an angle. But it also doesn't feel good to play the buttons perpendicular. For now I've kind of settled on this button layout seeing as how the buttons will be so close to the joystick, the right hand will have to be at an angle towards the joystick. That makes less strain on the right arm and wrist. Comments? :blah: |
