Do not adjust your monitor, yes that thing is BIG! It's the X-Arcade™ XXL control panel made specifically for DIY arcade machine builders. At 37" X 16.5” you have plenty of room to put in a spinner, 4-way ball-top, or even some cup holders! The best part, they're half the price of the Tankstick at under one hundred dollars! But the supply is very limited, and when they're gone, they're gone!
