Anyone ever build a Mahjong Control panel?

I have some in-laws coming over from Asia in a couple months, and they were going to teach me how to play Mahjong. I wanted to learn on the arcade as well, since there are so many freakin' games on there. So I am wondering if anyone has built a mahjong control panel before. I am guessing that it is pretty straight forward, but have no experience with any mahjong cabs.

I also noticed that there are 2 player controls in mame for mahjong. Are P2 controls ever used? The pictures I see of the control panels only ever have 1 player.

Also, I have no clue what the bottom row of buttons mean.

I kinda figured a lack of response on this thread, there is as much demand for mahjong here as a wet loaf of bread.  :lol

If I get around to it, I will make an attempt and report my results.  :cheers:

Instead of learning to play Mahjong on MAME you can just type "8 bit boobs" into Google.

I always figured it must be an entertaining game or there would not be so many freaking versions of it. Can't just be a cultural thing. I mean, we like most other asian games? Right? Maybe I'll try and learn it LOL

I don't see this thread being anything more than a smart ass haven though.  :lol

Is the game in question really even mahjongg? Or is it like those "mahjongg" solitaire computer programs from the nineties? Or is it like a mahjongg version of video poker? It seems like a full hand of mahjongg would not be a good way to get cash out of a coin-op since the game would be rather long by default.
