Wow, I ignore this post for a couple days and it blossoms into a novella ripe with intrigue, retribution, and a warm-and-fuzzy reconciliation. Nice!!!

I've been thinking of having some "hidden" combo pause button setup, but after a few days of the wife yapping at me in the middle of a (inenvitably high-scoring) game, I need instant pause-ability. We just didn't have to deal with that kind of stuff back in the day!
I agree that a number of the original list are personal preference. The only guideline which rises to "Commandment-level" for me would be positioning the joysticks too far apart to comfortably play Robotron...

If you pause the game it's not a real high score, IMO... can't pause in an arcade if someone yaps at you.
Chris G:
Next you're going to tell me I have to count all those 2 foot putts I miss... :P

I used to before I decided golf wasn't for me.

But you can slug the guy in the arcade but not the wife, so that doesn't count either.
Personally, I like dedicated Coin, Start, Pause, and Escape buttons, but that's it . . .
And O and K, but that's it . . .
And maybe F11, and F12, and F2, and F3, but definitely none beyond that . . .
Except . . .
Okay, this is getting silly now, can't have silliness on this forum . . .
