  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

Don't worry Ginsu.  You have more knowledge of arcades than oyama82 has with video cards.  For that, I'm proud of you.

7 is not necessary for any of the classic street fighter games, as far as I am aware (I don't play fighters very often)

That's not what he was saying.

The OP asked specifically:
Quote
Is the 7 button required on the classic streetfighters...

Every once in a while we have to actually answer the questions asked by the posters instead of just drifting off into personal debates  ;)

Yeah, I've since read the thread better and realized what you were saying. Since my post would put me on oyama's side, I definitely back up YOUR side. :lol

That has been asked and answered already.

...I have been a computer technician for over 20+ years now, and currently hold the position of "National Technical Consultant" for Canada's largest shipping company.

Any more questions?  Better still, any relevant questions?

What's with the GameFAQs/IMDb style troll we've got here? It's amateur hour.

You're gonna have to try a lot harder.

Hey, yomama -- you should probably change your personal text before saint changes it for you ...  ::)

Quote from: TehRulez
11. Signatures, avatars, and the like. I wish they wouldn't, but fights between users are going to happen from time to time. Those will be dealt with as appropriate, if necessary (this is usually not the case). However, regardless of the individual threads that spark an argument, forum users should not let these arguments spill over to the rest of the forum. Please do not post snippets of the arguments or jabs at one another in your signature, avatar, unrelated posts, etc. Violators may find themselves with a new signature/avatar/etc selected by saint that they won't be able to change. saint has a nasty sense of humor. This rule is to stop specific arguments from polluting the rest of the forum. This rule applies to individual users -- it does not apply to commercial interests. You may post a thought (politely, please) about a vendor in your signature if you feel the need, but keep it from being obnoxious please.

He sent me a PM to show it off, and I told him to take a look at the rules, and he said I have no sense of humour.

I'm making book that he's the new version of Tranq, shorthair, Ummon and whoever else that thing came up with.

3-2 that he's is.

Also, it's going off at 5-2 that he's banned before the end of August. 

We've got even money that his IP is in the continental US. 

Step right up folks, everyone is a winner.  Well, except troll-boy.

The first response back to CheffoJeffo answered the question.   ::)

Whoah so much replies, I wish most of them weren't trolling / flaming though  :cry:

So What if I just went in for the 8 button layout shown below:



So would this suffice or can you think about any other buttons I need?

Quote
player 1
- u360
- 8 buttons for playing
- 1 player button
- coin button

player 2
- u360
- 8 buttons playing
- 2 player button
- coin button

admin
- pause / play button
- exit button
- save button
- load button

pinball
- 4 buttons

other
- ipac 2

PS. I am not looking a superb arcade feeling, I'm looking for playability (is that a word?) and having fun with friends, while having to hassle with the equipment as little as possible.
