4 player CP's. P3 & P4 comfort?
paigeoliver:
Dude, you do know that when playing Golden Tee there is no difference in distance the ball will go with a normal stroke or a monster glass bashing stroke. I have a '99 machine. I do smooth easy strokes and my friend Dave does monster glass bashers.
I usually outdrive him by about 4 yards.
hulkster:
yeah but its so much coooooooooler ;D to have the cool glass bashing stroke. right? right!!?!?! 8)

Hmm, ok this thread has me curious about something: What is a "showcase" cabinet?!? Versus an "upright" cabinet? Any examples you can point me to?
I am building a 4 player CP right now, I have a full mock up already made and wired, and the 3 & 4 players are at a 45 degree angle, on a 48" wide X 24" deep CP. Very similar to many other 4 player cabs I've seen on the net. So.. this will be mounted to an arcade style cabinet, with the panel wider than the cab. Is that an "upright" or a "showcase"? I don't really care what you call it, but I'd like to know what you all mean in your posts! :)
Silver:
A Showcase cab is where the CP is physically seperated from the stand with monitor - think sit down tekken with a 50" screen. You don't WANT to be that close to one of those (they normally come with large monitors)
check out the MEGA cab at dreamauthentics:

Or even better check out hulkster's rather cool (IMHO) cab here:

Thats a "showcase". Takes up *Lots* of room.....

I have 2 young kids who by the time my cab is finished will always want to play. More than likely Mum & Dad will get dragged in for a good game of The Simpsons and I think having a four player machine can only add to the fun.
I really considered the Showcase style after finding a 38" D9200 monitor for a steal. But, it's really not the look I am trying to re-create.
Thanks for all the feedback, I think I can live with minor elbow bashing for P3 & P4, so my thoughts on a 4 player system just moved forward some more.
