I'm looking for some helpful suggestions to improve my layout, if anyone feels i'll run into problems with the current design. Let me start by saying the original layout is the "Arcade Paradise 3" CP layout, which I have modified, from here:
http://www.arcadeparadise.org/arcade/ap3/cpplanning.htmlThe admin buttons across the top from left to far right are: [1P Start, 1P Coin, Pause, Quit, Reset] [2P Start, 2P Coin]
Between the spinner (undecided) and the trackball (Beston Imperial), Left Mouse and Right Mouse.
The dedicated 4 way (Ms. Pacman Reunion) will have two dedicated buttons, A & B.
The 8 ways (Wico 8-Way Cherry Microswitch) will have six buttons each, A thru F.
1. Specifically, will the close proximity (sort of?) of the 4 way to the 8 way present any issues?
2. Any issues with the left & right mouse between the spinner and trackball to avoid 1 set of buttons for each?
3. Is two buttons or three buttons recommended when dedicating buttons to the 4 way?
4. Recommend a reasonably priced spinner (won't get used a whole lot, but don't want a hack)?
Good, Bad, Ugly?
