What MAME games can you play with just a joystick?
« on: March 22, 2010, 10:20:44 pm »
Hey guys!

I'm working on a Ms. Pacman MAME and I'm keeping the control panel authentic.  So, aside from the slew of pacman clones/bootlegs what other games can I put in it?  All I can think of is frogger!  :dunno

Thanks guys!

Do a maws deluxe search.  You can search by controls (joy4way?), and buttons to whatever you like.

Theres not much. I would map the 1 & 2 player Start buttons so that they could also be used as regular action buttons. That would allow you to play hundreds more games even if the layout would be a little odd.
