I'm surprised that I have not seen anyone else use this controls setup for playing Neogeo and Capcom games.
http://www.freewebz.com/portablemk/panel%20example%203.gifThis setup is better than the norm for two reasons:
1. The position of the joystick (in the center of the three rows of buttons) makes it so your hand is not either too far up or to far down when using either the neogeo, or capcom/fighter layout. On most layouts, the joystick is between the first two rows of buttons. This puts the joystick unnecessarily high up when trying to play neogeo games.
2. No lame button lableing on the control panel is needed since the button colors differenciate between the three main game layouts: red = capcom/fighters, blue = neogeo, and red+blue = 90% off all games buttons. Pretty simple. Although, stating that on the monitor bezel would look fine too, since it wouldn't take up much room.
I have built a one player panel with this layout, so I can confirm that this is extremely comfortable for playing both Neogeo games, and fighters.
