Exciting opportunity: can you design an arcade control panel from scratch?

Sorry, but you can do this research for free.

Its what I'm doing right now reading through and researching threads.

Pocket the money you would pay someone. Its hard work, but I feel you would understand your project more by doing your own research.

Good luck ... :cheers:

Just look through the "examples" section from the main webpage located at www.arcadecontrols.com

You should get a lot of 2 player control panel examples to see what people do.  The most basic design I have seen is two joysticks with 7 buttons each, spinner and trackball.  Good luck

It always makes me sad when I do my own name.  When I use my first and last name I get a whopping five hits, and three of those are from a blog we had to make in a technical writing course.  Heck my last name only gets 412 pages.  Anyone else get this few?

Hey Saint, I had no idea you played for the Chicago Bears. That's crazy!  :o


Also, up at the top of those search results...well apparently someone wrote a whole book about arcade cabinets.  Heh, cool.  :)

Derail!!   I searched for my name using Yahoo, and the first 100 hits were not me. I only get 15 pages when searching my name.

I am a business owner. This is a great opportunity for the right person.

Thank you.

I plugged your needs into my supercomputer, and for good measure, I also made it compatible with the Atari 800, Atari 2600, Intellivision, Fairchild Channel F, BBC Micro, Colecovison and Magnavox Odyssey.

After four full days of an array of 75 4ghz processors working on these requirements, the computer produced this.
It might not be pretty to look at, but the good news is that these can be produced for only $4,000 each.
