--- Quote from: Sjaak on January 22, 2010, 04:57:49 am ---Personally I don't like control panels with hundreds of buttons. I made a two player CP, with 2 joysticks, 3 buttons per player on top and one player/two player and coin button on the front of the CP. Haven't found a game (that I like) yet which uses more than 3 buttons. I can do Pause, Esc, etc. using the "shift" functionality of the I-Pac. --- End quote --- this is the same cp I have would it possible to get the dimensions? |

Also, what if people like me come over and ask if you have Street Fighter or something? You have a huge list of games, but no SF? "WTF?", I would say to myself. Part of owning an arcade is for show off value. After all, it took you some time to build and it's your pride and joy. I agree with this. Part of having a cabinet would be to entertain friends and family. It's also a conversation piece for your home. I'll also lend the advice of my father in law. Don't not do something that you might regret later. For example, I debated putting recessed cans in my kitchen during a remodel. I also had one light in the center of the kitchen. I debated and debated. I was spending something like $20K on the kitchen and I was busy debating what was about $20 in wire and $100 for the cans. At worse, I spend $120 that might not be used on something when the overall scope of the project is $20K. But the cost to add those cans later would be much greater if you need/want them. As it turns out, I am very happy that I put them in since the additional light is very useful. So, how much are you spending in total and what is the cost of 6 extra buttons (3 per player)? If you have hte room for more buttons, I say do it. |
