HELP: What are your MUST-HAVES in a control panel?

<< < (7/7)

deadkenndys1105:
Well if you ask me standard fighter controls work for me.  Even though most of the time my cabinet is running games with 2 buttons I like being able to run a fighter without having a franken panel.  I hate these cps that look wrong.  When I sat down and planned my cabinet I said I wanted it to look like I just got it out of an arcade.  Well that didn't really happen because I didn't know that much about how arcades are built and my cabinet can't be called a peace of art but I am going to be rebuilding soon and am already planning everything out including the custom artwork.

Malenko:
I have 2 8ways with 7 buttons, the standard  "hotrod" config it plays pretty much everything. I really love the 7th button, it makes a great run button for mortal kombat 3 AND in addition to being the neo geo layout on the bottom it also makes a great turbo button for NBA JAM and NHL Open Ice (74 and 5 are my nba jam buttons)

I wanted a huge panel with all the bells and whistles, 4 sticks, a million buttons... its just not needed. I'm doing mine now after much deliberation, with 2 8-way competitions and 6/7 buttons each. If i can fit a track ball, I'll do that. Also, few admin buttons. K.I.S.S.  :applaud:

CM:
New panel = no spinner.  Yeah you heard me.  :)  After basically not using the one I had on my previous panel for several years, I redesigned without one and reconfigured spinner games to use the trackball instead.   I find the result much better personally.
