button layout: which style is best?

I spent more time thinking about the buttons on my future CP than I did about any other aspect of my project and came up with similar conclusions...
This was my latest design idea:

And this was my cardboard test that I found to give me the feeling I wanted.

My 2 cents, but I would recommend the curved arc thingy like I did.

Nice.
And a natural arc on the bottom row, with the 7th button, for a Neo Geo layout.

Do what's comfortable. I'm using a curved design for my next cab. I have CPs that are like all of your examples and I like the curved one the best. In fact, if I ever get around to it I'd like to redo my straight and raised middle button CPs to be curved as well. My layout is attached.

I prefer the standard, uniform, two straight rows of three.
