Woa... I didn't know that for games like Smash TV you needed 1-2 adjacent and 3-4 adjacent to each other. Would you then have to play Robotron off to the side (using 1+2)? I thought this could all be mapped in MAMEUI or something per game. It seems that all the researching doesn't end with completing the building of the cab. 8)
Thanks alfonzotan. I do want to include everything, but maybe having a second CP for the extras (TB, tron stick, spinner) is not a bad idea, except for the extra woodworking. I still have more stuff to figure out like speaker arrangement, monitor-selection, etc before I get to the CP.
EDIT: I've even considered using minimalistic art for the CP to avoid the adding to the frankenness. :)

No prob. Here's a link to a couple of shots of my (F)CP... only regret I have is that there's just no good way to include a Star Wars yoke without building a rotating or interchangeable panel.

Trackball...YES!!! Spinner... I didn't and wish I had... Tron Flight Yoke.... Again... I did not and wish I had every time I want to play Tron, which is rare, but it is still cool.... But again... I rarely want to play....
I always tell people that want me to build them one.... Think of how many times you had four friends over that wanted to play the arcade at the same time and then think of what game it was...
I agree with alfonz.... do it for you... no one else...
