Robotron control panel dilemma

both robotron and crazy climber are horizontal so maybe add an extra 8-way just to the right of your buttons on one side panel.

And although it didn't seem popular way back when, I enjoyed playing Krull (still do) which uses 2 8 way joys. I think Black Widow does too.

I love robotron. I do the p1 & P2 joystick.
Stupid question: How many dual joy games are there?
Kremmit:
Smash TV
Total Carnage
Karate Champ (should have 4-ways, not 8-ways)
and check this one out, it's not a real arcade game, but it rocks- BYOAC user KevSteele is responsible for the review: http://www.retroblast.com/reviews/mutant.html

Very good idea! :) Not sure how easy it would be to do modular on a cocktail though.
Here's my modular Robotron layout. Very close to the original spacing too.
IIRC Robotron joysticks were a little longer. I can't remember if it's so that it can go through the wood on the control panel or just to make them longer for gameplay.
I'm curious to know if anyone has any Robotron tips and what folks high scores are. The only tip I know is the "Mikey' cheat on the Brain Wave.
