What PL1 said. What games are you going to play also Is this going to be a single player or two?

You will need at least 6 action buttons if you plan on playing street fighter. so 12 if its 2 player. plus maybe a couple more for start exit if you want separate admin buttons.

I'm planning on dong one with Reys' also.  I just hope any 128gb micro sd will fit.  Can't really go with the expensive ones right now.
