23.75" control panel with 2 players... some questions!

(1/4) > >>

OC_Ryan:
Hey fellas,

I'm looking to build a two player control panel for my first mame project, but the control panel can only be 23.75 inches in width. I'm wanting 6 buttons per player, and a joystick. No trackball or anything else. I noticed Knievel had the same size control panel to work with, and made it look pretty damn good and fit a trackball in!

My question is, what would y'all suggest for the spacing between the joystick and buttons if I didn't have the trackball?

Thanks!

it is definitely do-able, but it will be a tight fit for two adults to get in there.  i tried to make it work on my cabinet, but in the end, it was just too crowded, i ended up cutting the sides of the cabinet and building a control panel box.  now my panel is 12x30 and it plenty comfortable for two large adults

Mine is 23 5/8" and it can be done, but it is a tight fit when two people play.
