MVS-99-6 - Project on hold until further notice (2014-03-10)

Well, since Shiden makes the buttons that Sanwa is selling as "SDM-20" I thought I would check Shiden's website.
The Shinden part number is SDP-1003C-41 and yes those are available in all-white and all-black (amongst other colors for both the body and button).
The problem is finding these buttons for sale online, apart from ArcadeShop.de which is oversea for me (high shipping cost, long shipping times). I did send the Shinden part number to Chad at LizardLick, we'll see if he can find a source for these.
In the meantime if anyone in north america happens to have three all-white Sanwa SDM-20 / Shinden SDP-1003C-41 buttons in mint condition for sale, please contact me.
In the meantime, I would like to thank javeryh for giving me a push into re-doing the CP for a fourth time. It's not done yet, but the revised CP overlay speaks for itself. The white buttons layout is roughly based on jeffhlewis' Neo Geo MVS Mini layout.
edit: yes, I know. It's missing the letters in the dark area around the main buttons. :P

I made the front of the unit so I could test playability on such a narrow control panel.
It's not comfortable, but then again it's not unplayable either... I would need about 2 inches on the left of the joystick to be able to rest my hand, but there's just no room for that. To have enough room the joystick would have to be right above the "B" (yellow) button. When doing a micro bartop (desktop cab?) you have to make compromises. ;)
You can also see the "old vs new" layout for the buttons. The buttons are in the old position and the paper overlay shows the area where the buttons will be on the fourth revision of the CP (see reply #65 above. Thanks again to javeryh for pushing me on redoing the CP until it's right).

Now that is looking good! How does it feel? Are your hands cramped? It looks good from the picture.
