Common Mame Buttons

[Nightmare03]

How many buttons are mostly used on most mame games?

I have 6 buttons per player, just one of them spare will make creating this program alot easier...

Could you rephrase your question?  What are you trying to do?

I think he is asking how many buttons do most games use. I also think our friend is putting the cart before the horse by starting a Mame cabinet project before he even really knows what Mame is.

Anyway, most games use 1 button.
Most others use 2.
Almost all the rest use 3.
Maybe 3 or 4 percent of games use four or more (90 percent of which are fighters).
