Omen Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Ok I kinda figured it was because you're left handed. That's interesting the cabinets in Greece were like that, I wonder why. Very awesome arcade cab! I can't wait to see it with the bezel glass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're still looking for some help with a bezel image then I'm more than willing to give it a go at making one for you, I just need the exact measurements for the inner and outer dimensions of your bezel. I live in the USA so it's so weird seeing the controls swapped like that but to me it's funny because I always used to cross my arms while playing so that my left hand was doing the buttons and right doing the stick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you very much , I’ll sent you the dimensions of my bezel ,I am thinking that it would be great to have an image instead of the black paint.Thank you very much!!

Yeah no problem. I'm assuming from the artwork you already have on your cab that you want something that's based on the original trilogy only? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trellos Posted February 12, 2019 Author Share Posted February 12, 2019 The controls here in Greece used to be like this ,I don’t know why but it really helps me cause iam lefthander. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually since we last talked I found out why the control layout is different. For the control panels that didn't have ambidextrous controls the stick was originally on the right and the buttons on the left. Players actually started getting too good at the games and many didn't have a way to increase the difficulty, so they did it artificially by reversing the controls to make it harder for right handed people and profits went back up. It became such a requested customization from arcade operators that it eventually became the standard in many places around the world.

trellos Posted February 12, 2019 Author Share Posted February 12, 2019 Oh I didn’t know this,almost all arcades in Greece had the stick on the left,and many guys need to cross hands in order to play . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry it's taken me so long to get around to this. I have one done so far but I'm going to make a few variants and then you can tell me which one you like best along with any changes, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
