Hey all.

I'm about to build a Vector MAME cab with a ZVG card and an Amplifone XY monitor. Any one have any suggestions as to how to layout the panel to optimize gameplay? I really only want the thing for Star wars and Star Trek:SOS but the other games will be a bonus. I have the yoke for Star wars and already know about the 100K pot thing. I've looked on the internet but only found people with raster MAME cabs.

TIA!

You realize of course that if you hooked it up to a vectrex (http://www.zektor.com/zvg/zvg_vpics.htm) you would have the beginnings of a /sweet/ little bartop cab.

True, but you can't have /everything/. <G>

Also true, but there is nothing stopping you from building a rotating rig for it. The web page shows it running both ways.
