Anyone ever put a phone keypad on their MAME cabinet like Raw Thrills games?

How did that work on your Twin Cabinet Build?

Looks like Tony tried one too.  No idea how well it worked for him -- only found one post where he mentioned it.

TapeWormInYourGut ran into problems with using his in many emulators.

Howard mentioned a potential problem using it with MAME and nexusmtz provided a possible workaround.

Looks like a Stream Deck could be a viable option if your system, desired use case, emulator program(s), and wallet can support it.   :dunno

Honestly, I have never used the keypad functions of the raw thrills games.   Never really crossed my mind. 

I have the 6-button Stream Decks on my Twin, and they work good enough for the original intent.  They're currently used for front end navigation / cabinet controls.

If that's what you're using it for, it can be great like gildahl's arcadeEIP.

I had to hunt around a little bit. I wanted something that was more commercial grade like an arcade part. I was able to find this one (got the one with USB and LED backlight) last year before the prices went up on AliExpress - you can find it on ebay but it's $20 more and probably from the same seller.

I don't hate that. It looks solid, and not like you've gored the cab to shoehorn in extra controls. More like it was meant to be there. Somehow not looking like any arcade controls makes it look more authentic, here :)
