6 buttons

Richard,

What I have found and did myself was find a rigid piece of cardboard or a good solid shoe box and "dry fit" your button configuration and see how it feels.  I personally like the "ergonomic", because, like everyone has said, it feels better when you get into your fourth hour of any vs fighter.  Also by doing this you can, if you haven't already get a feel on how to properly crimp and route your wires if you want to make your temporary joystick playable.

You've mentioned that before. I'm curious exactly how curved your layout it? The Slagcoin one is curved. but not THAT bad.

I know that LOOKS random, but that is actually a very bad attempt at an ergonomic layout. The red-green-darkgreen (with the black button below) cluster is probably supposed to be 3 fingers and a thumb. The odd buttons clustered around the stick are probably meant to be hit with the same hand the controls the stick (the pair at the top are probably rotate-left and rotate-right for console games and Xybots) while the red one below is probably the reverse button for Defender.

The red and black buttons adjoining the spinner are up and down for discs of tron.

And the joysticks are angled because bad ideas generally come in groups.
