It's your cabinet and you can do as you please....I just think your attitude toward what the rest of us are doing stinks.

His attitude? His attitude was enthusiastically talking about a new control scheme. You started offering criticism on his choices, and then started threadshitting.

Ginsu Victim:
No, but comments like this I definitely feel the need to ---Cleveland steamer--- on.

I don't know about you, but I hear a very condescending tone in there...

JKJudgeX:
"With that type of outlook on this hobby, you really shouldn't get into this."

... and I'm condescending for telling you to build your cabinet your way while I build mine my way?  Yeah, okay.

You're the guy telling people what they're allowed to do with their own arcade cabinets and trying to dictate who and what is allowed in this hobby, not me.

I'm just here trying to gather up knowledgeable replies about my topic, and pitch in help in the few places that I can.  I'm CERTAINLY not here to argue about arcade authenticity, the nature of this "hobby", or who is more condescending...

So, without further digression, will you please stop derailing my thread now? 

Either let it age into oblivion or be filled with on-topic posts, but please, enough with the hijack.

Ginsu Victim:
All I meant was if you're looking to save work, time, and money, you're in for a surprise. At that time, I didn't know you even had a cabinet yet.
My point was that you'll always spend more money on it then you wanted to, you'll spend every spare moment working on your cabinet, and for some, it's never done.
It was actually a sarcastic post that a lot of people would identify with.
I don't care what you do with your cabinet. I DO care, however, when you crap on the way we do things.

ChadTower:

Lighten up on this guy.  Seems like he has a reasonably valid proposal here.  I didn't see him crap on anything.

I don't think the Wiimote has fine enough control to be a good replacement for hardwired analog controls like a trackball or steering wheel.  It's just not sensitive enough.  Maybe as a light gun since that is using the pointer rather than the accelerometers but definitely not the others.
