Getting first cabinet neogeo 6 slot need help on cp replace

As titsls say im getting my first arcade cabinet tomorrow and its a neogeo 6 slot. I live in Hawaii so i had to freight it from California. So i dont think ill be getting another for a very long time. So my problem is neo geo is only 4 buttons but what if i want to play street fighter or play centipede.

So i was wondering if anyone could make me or know someone who could make me a control panel fitting the neogeo 6 slot with 2 7 button players and a track ball in middle. 7 buttons so 1234 is neogeo then the bottom buttons would be 456. It would also have cut outs for the neogeo coin counter and game select. Basicall a normal neogeo 6 slot cp with 7 buttons instead of 4

Let me know please i would really apprecuate it
 
Any good metal shop local to you could take the original CP copy itand add the layout you want. Are you are going mame / RPI the cab if so please don't hack the harnes. Multi slot Neogeo's do not use a standard Jamma harness layout so you will need to use a keyboard/joystick encoder to wire up your buttons. You might be better served going over to the BYOAC forum since that one deal more with mame than this forum.

No not mame. Im getting a cps2 multi and iv bought X-Men pcb tmnt pcb. I have the neogeo to jamma adapter already.
Just wanted a new cp so not to ruin the original.

Local metal shop might be hard as i live on the small island of kauai. But ill look around.

You may want to try making a separate WTB post on the WTB section. I think the post here has more than likely turned a few stomachs and you probably won't get the help you seek.

A little late now, but you probably should have just snagged a candy cab or some generic Jamma if this was the direction you were going to go in. A Dynamo would have suited your needs pretty well. .
 
I would add that you won't be able to play Centipede in a Neo cab as the monitor orientation is different and a dedicated Neo cab will not have the room to rotate the monitor. Another reason why a Dynamo or Candy would have been a bit better.
