Thanks. Regular Happ buttons and a 4-way stick. I bought a Nintendo stick from Shardian recently so I'll probably replace the generic 4-way when my motivation picks up (so never). Because there are only 3 buttons on the panel (1p, 2p, and jump) I had to add the Keywiz SHAZAAM button and an escape button under the cp shelf (right above the coin door). They are small buttons so no one would ever really notice them. The SHAZAAM allows me to press coin, tab, and enter from the cp so I can configure MAME when needed without hooking up a keyboard. The escape button allows me to get back to MALA so I can jump into the other DK games.

Holy Cow(bell)! That's really amazing. This is more impressive than that show where they take the 200 lb chicks with buck teeth and turn them into Jessica Simpson. ;D

So a beat to crap cab looks better after 12 beers? I'll have to try that.

Pardon the messy garage, by the way. Stuff just piles up over the winter and then I do a big cleaning come springtime.
