Control Panel Size Question

<< < (2/4) > >>

erikthecat:
i keep seeing these massive panels, most on fantastic looking, monster large cabinets. i bet you all live in the States, in huge houses:). my question, why do you feel the need for fourplay? :) most games are single,  less are two, even less three. what games are you building these for, it can't be just for Gauntlet, can it?
i am just interested, i would like to know how it costs in?
regards,
GaRy:)

i'm only jealous, i couldn't rustle up that many interested friends, know one seems to share my passion aka mental problem:(

the3eyedblindman:
I can think of the simpsons, X men, and some others, the cost isnt much more at all, your going to pay the same price for the wood to build it, all you are paying more for is a few extra pushbuttons, which are only like a dollar apeice, and 2 joysticks, probably about 50 dollars more for a 4 player than a 2 player.

unclet:
Yeah, when I built my 4-player control panel (56"x19") I decided to simply have 4-player joysticks since the money was negligible at that point.   Also, I believe some games you need 2 joysticks for each player ..... so if you planned on playing these type games with two players, then 4 joysticks are a must (2 for each player).

Some of these control panel widths are like legendary. I have two dedicated 4-player cabinets in my apartment and the widths are 37" and 31" respectively.

Mine doubles as a landing deck in times of war...I don't know HOW you'd get a plane to land on a CP sized so small, Paige  ;)
