This might be an incredibly stupid question, but...

Has any developed a truly modular arcade system where you can...

1.) Swap out the monitor with the correct size, resolution, refresh, type, orientation

2.) Swap out the control panel to suit the game

I know there are some mame rigs with many different input methods integrated. I also know people sometimes make a second control panel to swap in and out, but it seems like a system like this would be an awesome solution to going dedicated on everything.

You could either have 1 cab with both swapable and rotatable monitors, or a cab for each monitor type.

Then you could make a trackball controll panel, dual joystick panel, even panels for specific games like 720°/Paperboy/Starwars Yolk/Tempest Spinner.

Is the problem with this connecting the control panels to the PCB?
