Which is better, 2-player or 4-player CPs?

<< < (3/6) > >>

Maumauproductions:
If you can afford it and build it, 4-Player all the way. Although I was thinking 3 formyself (honestly) because I have some friends that are really into Secret of Mana (a 3 player Action-Adventure for the SNES whichd be emulated in my cab). 2-Player is definetly easiest though.

crashwg:
Does anyone else find the way these #s came out quite odd???  Yes, it does add up (to 99[close enough]) but it realy seems weird to me...

u_rebelscum:
I'll go three player before I'll go four, partialy because I don't have three arcade-o-holic friends able to come over at the same time to play with.  

I'd use ctrlr ini files so one player games (pacman etc) use the center stick, two player games use the outside sticks, and 3 & up player games use all sticks in normal order.

Not that there are many 3 player games, and many of the best 3 player games used analog inputs: trackballs, guns, or 360 degree wheels.  (see partial list below)  Still, three players in four player games could be played with a 3 player CP (and which three can be set with ctrlr ini files).

Some games that had at least one 3 player version (more found at maws search)
Alien Storm
Alien vs. Predator
Armored Warriors
Battle Toads
Beast Busters
Cadillacs and Dinosaurs
The Combatribes
Crypt Killer*
Danny Sullivan's Indy Heat*
Double Dragon 3 - The Rosetta Stone
Guardians of the Hood
Hot Rod*
Ironman Stewart's Super Off-Road*
Judge Dredd
The King of Dragons
Knights of the Round
Michael Jackson's Moonwalker
Pit Fighter
Rampage
Rampage: World Tour
Rampart*
The Real Ghostbusters
Revolution X*
Segasonic the Hedgehog*
Super Sprint*
The Three Stooges In Brides Is Brides
Xenophobe

*these used analog inputs


That said, I've already done a few two player CPs.  Next is probably a three player, three 360 degree wheel CP.  To paraphrase another post: "Super Sprint & Offroad baby! Awe yea..."

Evidently, my friend, you don't have stairs in your house.

I guess he's not protected.

FWIW. I have a two player cocktail with 2 1P panels and 1 2P panel. But I also have two usb ports so two more players can join in.
