The 7th button....What is it used for?
skid_68:
Ive played some Neo-geo games, and I do like them. But if its only because it places a certain button closer to what a neo-geo arcade is like, then I dont think I need it.
Since this is my first cab, I think Ill be keeping it a simple 6 button layout for now. Thanks for the info guys.

I have a 6 button layout too. not into the neogeo fighters too much. The only game that I play that uses all 4 buttons is 2020 baseball. And then the 4th button is timeout :) For neogeo in my ctrlr files I have my buttons setup like

well if youre into the neo geo fighters its a lot easier playing with the buttons laid out the way theyre supposed to be then having to use the top and bottom row on a game that isnt meant to. but like what has been said, if youre not into neo geo games u prolly dont need it but then what if u start liking them? hehe

I dunno but I think it's a lot more comfortable with the 7 button layout. This is going to be my first cab also but i'm going with the neogeo SF combo. Hey if you got the extra button, just wire it up.

So, if you put the 7th button down low, do you wire it into one of the other buttons or do you have 7 distinct buttons?
That is, what would the buttons look like?
