My fingers instinctively go to the top row. This has been discussed before and IMO it falls among generational lines. Us old folks who grew up playing on controllers with only one row of buttons go for the top. Younger folks go for the bottom row for the main buttons, like was on the controllers they grew up with. Might be wrong or right, but that's my theory. All of my guests always go for the top row. Also, if you start on the bottom, you'll end up having to remap ALL the fighting games except for Neo Geo. |

Pretty much grew up in the arcade, and I prefer bottom row. 456 1237 (7 is mapped as 4) --- Quote ---Also, if you start on the bottom, you'll end up having to remap ALL the fighting games except for Neo Geo. --- End quote --- Meh, it's not that big a deal to me or my guests. They didn't play enough Capcom fighting games to notice. |

Maybe this is what 1 should have done? I've yet to edit an ini: 456 1234 I've yet to play a 7 button game. |

We configure like this out of the box... 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 This allows for the Neo-Geo and Streetfighter players. However, in MAME if you configure the bottom row as buttons 4 5 6, then you have both configurations ready to go. It's a 6-button layout, but you can change to 7. |

I don't see how 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 allows for Street Fighter |
