Im using switchable 8 way. I will have 4 way on the cocktail ends and 8 way on the third panel for both players. I guess I will add 4 buttons on the end panels then. Thanks guys |

The Metal Slug series is horizontally oriented... I say go with 3 buttons to cover vertical shmups. --- End quote --- Correct me if I'm wrong but also, don't the metal slug games use 3 buttons? |

...and while you posted that, I was going to add a list of all the 4 button, cocktail, vertical games. (This is ignoring all the controls, only looking at buttons.) This is also from mame 135, so YMMV. Clones removed from this list. D-Day (Jaleco set 1) Image Fight (revision A, Japan) Panic Road Panther Pinball Action (set 1) Romar Triv Speed Ball Super Triv Trivia Master (set 1) Vanguard (SNK) yawn. IMO, 4 buttons just isn't worth it. |
