Title: Dimensions of your 4P CP
Post by: unix4hire on February 18, 2005, 04:28:05 pm

I'm set on making a 4P CP but naturally I only want it to be big enough to allow all players to stand comfortably and not crunched.  As such, what are the dimensions of your 4P panels? 

For comparison the dimensions on a 4P slikstik are something along the lines of 21"x48", which just seems enormous to me!   :o Is that overkill in size or what I should expect for comfortable gameplay?

My CP was originally a 4P when it was a dedicated machine.  The CP is 14x37.

I used the 4 player CP that is at mameroom.net. It isnty terribly large like the Slik Stik Quad, yet it's comfortable to play on.

I beleive mine is about 52 inches by 21 inches or somewhere around there, put the track ball and 4 way behind the front 4 player buttons to give people more space around it.
