Need opinions
« on: June 24, 2003, 02:02:11 pm »
Hey guys.  I'm still working on the cabinet itself in my arcade project (the computer and game setup is all done).  I'm using an old Stern cabinet in which the glass and control panel all sat on the same plane.  I'm trying to redesign all that, but I'm having a problem setting the angle on the control panel.  If I set the angle of the panel almost level, maybe a slight incline, do you think it'll be hard for two people to play?  

Has anyone here ever done work on a Stern cabinet?

Oh yes, my cab is a stern.

The angle of the original CP is perfect as it is, and provides plenty of room for 2 players.
