Should I put a pause button on my CP?

Sasquatch!:
I have one, and I think it's a good idea.

A pause button sould be easily accessed and there's no better place than on the CP.

For home use this is a good idea.  In the arcade the shop owner wouldn't want you to pause even if it was available, it wouldn't make as much money then.

Lilwolf:
Dedicated pause is a GOOD thing!

also

Dedicated F10 (and change mame to have showfps to F10 also) for a quick speedup is also GREAT!  I do want to hack mame to change to frameskip 12 when I press it and back to frameskip 0 the next time.

Probably 2 of my favorite buttons... Behind... coin player 1, start player 1, heck joystick player 1 and a few player 1 buttons.

Pete Harcoff:
Most definitely.  I stuck a couple pause buttons on my 2 player CP and they've proved extremely useful.

SirPoonga:
The only two dedicated buttons I have are pause and exit.  And my pause button is my shift button too.
