Hi GRS What are the 4 buttons too center used for? I am interested but not sure if I would use them. Ingame? Menu? What do you use them for?

[@haphzrd]

Excellent!!! GRS has added all the improvements that I wanted... keeps getting better. They are my favorite custom builders.

[@haphzrd]

I specifically like that they pre-cut for UBS ports, HDMI ports, and power-switch. I also love that the pre-drilled joystick mounts are now flush and allow for SuzoHapp joysticks. I was doing all these mods myself before, and it was a hassle.

[@LunchboxBrimz]

YES!!! thank you for adding HAPP competition comparability!! Ya'll are the hands down best arcade kit suppliers! Now I'm defintiely excited to build another one. Hopefully Vewlix or CandyCab style bartops come in the future!

[@FindingTheSunRecords]

Great Stuff…!! Thank You for keeping the Arcade Hobby Alive…!!

[@metalphobos3632]

I honestly cant wait to get one. You are the man! Thank you so much for this great video. Looking forward to ordering.

[@ggrischow]

Thanks for improving the joystick mount. I am currently going to try to route out the sanwa mount so that I can fit a IL Lorenzo joystick. This is on your 2 player bar top. Hope it goes well otherwise I might have to order a new controller top.

[@djm2373]

I have one. LOVE it. Ryan you guys should make Ultimate edition with dedicated 4 way joystick. Regardless these things are awesome

[@heykool69]

Dang, shoulda waited for this. Just got your other control panel weeks ago :(

[@tapoutms5608]

Great job looks amazing like all your products

[@shawnwade302]

Nice. Looks like there is room for a couple spinner controls?

[@anekinoo7]

Very nice. What’s the size? Didn’t see the size specs on the site.

[@Cargo_Bay]

would this be able to sit on your pedestal unit you sell? I know there's another panel you sell specifically for THAT pedestal, but what sells me on this ons is the 7 button layout (would prefer that for the MK games. Prefer the RUN button on the button left).

[@bobmaslen2970]

Will GRS spinner and trackball work just wired into my control panel when using a jamma connector from original arcade boards

[@swiggityswooty-]

Shouldn’t the track ball mount be rotated 90 degrees so that there isn’t a screw head protruding just above and below the center of the ball? That seems like it would hurt pretty bad if you caught the tip of your fingers on the one above or scraped your palm on the one below.

[@Gameroomsolutions]

Trackballs are designed like this. There is a specific orientation. In the video we show how it has arrows for the orientation to point toward the monitor.

[@ASofterSide]

I'm going to order this premade. It says spinner cut, does that mean I have to buy a spinner or will they put it in for me. Also, how would I add games?

[@djy2j917]

Was trying to find the video that shows specifically how to connect/wire the trackball. I have successfully mounted it but don't know where to plug each wire. Any links?

[@anthonyhollinger832]

About to buy one but curious wouldn’t you hit your hand on the screw heads for the track ball ? Have you made a hidden mount yet?

[@Gameroomsolutions]

We can support a utrak from ultimarc the is blind mounting, but the screws on the Happ style like we sell don't bother you when playing.

[@anthonyhollinger832]

GameRoomSolutions.com ok I sent you an email on your website asking some questions I will place an order this weekend for that control set up just the shell and plexi and graphics would I just mention that I don’t need the screw holes cut on the out side?

[@43bigsteve]

Of course, a couple weeks after I get my other one ordered and all put together, this one gets released!

[@Gameroomsolutions]

It would be a quick sell. :)

[@Juggernaut76-e7m]

You should do a version with an 8 button layout instead of six and lose the track ball would be perfect for pc fighting games

[@HOUDIN24]

how did you get the screws and bolts installed on trackball almost ripped off a finger tip? this control panel is excellent quality love everything about it purchased mines a while ago finally started to assemble pretty simple

[@Gameroomsolutions]

You just push the trackball up in place and push a bolt through, then just get the nut on so it doesnt fall off. repeat for the 3 others and lock down. Not sure how you finger would be in any position to have issues.

[@MB-hl3mq]

The trackball works with your 200gb sd card you offer with this setup? How many games work with the trackball? I definitely want one of these.

[@juanburgos6528]

I’m looking at the two player with trackball option. Do you have a pedestal for the two player? I see four player pedestal only. Thx!

[@Gameroomsolutions]

We are currently working on a stand for the control panels.

[@gerrymarshall5479]

@@Gameroomsolutions any update on this? I also would like a two player, with trackball pedestal mount.

[@kaco3000]

What is the bottom-left button that's next to the joystick for? I just bought the arcade and I'm trying to wire the control panel but nowhere on your site or diagram does it show the button or what it does. Not even your videos. Please help.

[@Gameroomsolutions]

You can plug into any open pin. People use it for mortal kombat or if you want to use the bottom 4 buttons for neogeo layouts.

[@cmd2973]

I saw someone ask the question about the spinner cut out. I was interested in purchasing the package deal for $650 but would like to add the spinner cut out and can you install the actual Arkanoid style spinner as well?

[@Gameroomsolutions]

Hey Chris, Please contact through the site and we will work this out for you.

[@DanielChaves1984]

Do you have a 4 player with center trackball layout? Each player with a 6 button layout?

[@Gameroomsolutions]

Our 4 player pedestal has this option gameroomsolutions.com/shop/4-player-pedestal-cabinet/

[@Snapps240]

Is it "koin" because of "kombat" or a typo lol

[@seanrios4850]

Ryan, this is awesome! The ability to use a Happ style joystick will make me finally pick up a control panel. Is the ability to use a Happ style joystick on the regular two player control panel (without Trackball) available now?

[@Gameroomsolutions]

I am working backwards through products. The deluxe and this are going out with the new cuts and everything else will be shortly. If you just put in the notes you want the new mounting on the other one we will ship with that. For everyone else that runs across this more than likely everything is supported by now.

[@3dtexan890]

Unless I am missing something, I do not see that controller on the website you show.

[@deathr0w]

Nice looking unit but it has no spinners for arkanoid or forgotton worlds and other greats

[@Gameroomsolutions]

There is a spinner cut option that goes above player 1. It is selectable with the order. I have my spinner on our new 4 player pedestal we are about to release.

[@haphzrd]

I do not see the Spinner-cut option on the order page... only the trackball. Is it available yet?

[@Gameroomsolutions]

Yes, added just now. gameroomsolutions.com/shop/arcade-control-panel-kit-with-trackball-option/

[@SirRivers]

Is there a 4 player control panel ?

[@Gameroomsolutions]

We have a 4 player pedestal cabinet I hope to release this week.

[@UttRConcrete]

I need one ☝️

[@aguyandhiscomputer]

Can you post the timestamps in the comment section and pin it?

[@astropixTX]

See the one they built me along with my custom base cabinet here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ooSXqWSvnqx_n9E
