Maybe this is not a can of worms I truly want to open, but GameBoy Advance is still in the store and it is being emulated like mad.

So why not Playstation 2?

Just wondering aloud .......

i'd have to geuss that is becuz the gb advance is still only 32-bits, whereas ps2 is 128. it would seem easier to emulate a system that is basically a snes (as far as graphics go) than to emulate a system as powerful as the ps2. i think it is a matter of the hackers skill and time more than a matter of the retailer's stock

I think it's too much.. but then again I:

a. don't play newer consoles
b. none of my favorite games are 4player
c. The ARCADE games that ARE 4 player... none of which have more than 4 buttons...

You can also cut down on buttons by using an ipac/key wiz's shift/shazzzaam function for administrative buttons... also using a coin door / small hidden/obscured microswitches can save panel space from having the coinup button(s)...  *shrug* it's all personal preference.

And it's not like my do-it-all control panel came out perfect or is any sort of gold standard...  I'm just riffin' here...
