| Neo Geo 4th button, yes or no? |

This is for the 6 button street fighter layout + neo geo button. Please only respond if you have actually played with this config, people who are only planning on adding this in who do not know how it plays should not vote. Recently I've been messing around with neo geo games a lot and I am really starting to like them. I think it might be worth it to put that extra neo geo button in for games like samurai showdown. My main concern is hitting that button while playing. I am sure that you can set that button to only be active during neo geo games so that's not really an issue. Will it be uncomfortable though? I don't want to constantly rub against that 7th button when I'm not using it. I also don't want to have to space it so far from the 6 buttons - to avoid hitting it by accident - that it's not comfortable to use. So basically the point of this post is seeing what the majority of people did and how they liked the results. If you feel you did anything different in your CP layout with the button such as unusual spacing or positioning feel free to post a pic. |

I have really long fingers so I never have that problem of hitting off other buttons. I really like the Neo layout. It allows you to splay your hand over a 4 buttons at once which isn't the case with the Capcom layout. In fact I often wince when I see people set their six buttons up in straight lines. I looks ugly and plays badly. The ideal is probably this: O O O O O O O |

I actualy just drilled the holes for thouse in my CP today (for NeoGeo and Soul Calibure 2), I'll let you know how it goes when I'm done rewiring it :P I like the straight 3x2 grid, because that's how it is in SF arcade games. |

Never made a SF+ Neo Geo panel in my life. But several of my assorted panels have had normal Neo Geo 4 button layouts. I actually have no idea why I keep making 6 button panels. I have yet to ever actually play a 6 button game on any of them. I may drop down to 4 buttons per player on my next redesign. (Which also allows me to remove about 20 more games that are just cluttering the menu anyway). |

I have a SLIKSTIK CLASSIC which has the NEOGEO button layout incorporated into it. I have never really had a problem playing any games or bumped the 7 neogeo button by accident. As long as you place it to where its more down and to the left of the first of the bottom row of buttons you should have no problem. I think if you are really getting into the neogeo games, then definately put the neo geo layout on your CP . It will be much more authentic to you that way. I just built myself a 4 player panel and left out the 7'th button for the neo geo games. The primary reason i built the 4 player panel was to play games like gauntlet and simpsons etc. without spending a fortune buying a prebuilt setup like slikstik sells. I just couldn't see spending $700.00 on a 4 player setup when i can just build one myself for about $300.00. I didn't figure that i would be playing many single or 2 player fighting games for the neo geo on the 4 player panel so i figured why bother . I can just play the neogeo style on my slikstik. If it seems like the 7'th button is missing somehow, then i can always go back and drill me out a couple more holes for the extra button. No biggie. :) Hope this helps. :) g~ |
