Depends on what you consider a 4-way game.

Bank Panic uses 3 buttons, but is REALLY a 2-way stick.
Mouse Trap uses 4 buttons, and a 4-way stick.

Another thing to consider is that many games that COULD use a 2-way stick (Space Invaders, etc....) feel funny with a stick, rather than the two directional buttons.
Then there's the games that DID use a stick in the arcade, but shouldn't have. (Moon Patrol, Joust, etc...)

If I could only have FOUR of my modules on my cabinet, as a permanent CP, it would be 8-way Wico/3-button panel/8-way Wico/4-button panel.
That will cover my favorites better than any other combination.
