cmoses:
I notice your pinball buttons are aligned horizontally.  I think this is the first time I have not seen that done.  Any particular reason for not doing it?  Or for doing it the way you did?

BASS!:
I have been planning to do that with my new cp. It is just comfy. Then you can play Vpinball and your flipper and nudge buttons are easier to rest your fingers on. Still figuring out center nudge. Maybe a 3rd button on one side, or a button in the middle I could just bump with my belly? Also where is the plunger / plunger button?

mayhem:
plunger Button is the "enter Key" so Im going to map it to another button using my Ipac. It nice having a plunger button (or even a plunger) but kids tend to lean on the CP and while playing mame if the enter key is hit it causes problems (The plunger button works well for single player CPS  but multi player is not a good idea with kids). So No plunger buttons on the front of the system.

Yes you are correct as well with the Buttons at a angle it plays and feels much smoother for the nudge. Again did the set up my spending 10 min trying out different methods and found having them angled works best. Im not following any ones CP design except my own So you see a few differences from mine to normal Cps but there all personal taste and feel and nothing to do with a nostalgic look.

I was going to do a center Nug as well but haven't found a convent place to put it lol must admit :) ... It just feel correct when you put it on the side and feels fiddly and again cannot put it on the front as again it can easily be caught. Im not going For a tilt trigger on the inside of the system as my kids tend to get carried away and "Hit" the system for get the tilt to work so ill just do with out. Call it leaning from past mistakes.

cmoses:
So are the buttons just where they felt best or are they on a 45 degree angle.  Do you use the lower button and your middle finger for the flippers, leaving the higher buttons and index finger for the nudge?
