Another Newb question
« on: March 03, 2005, 05:31:00 pm »
I'm thinking about my controller layout.  It's going to be a 4 player controller.  I want to put the 7 button layout for Neo Geo games.  What I'm not sure about is do Neo Geo games support more than 2 players?  I've seen many 4 player controllers with 2 players laid out for Neo Geo, and 2 not.  Is it worth it to setup all 4 players with 7 buttons?

Is it worth it? No. Put all those extra buttons on if you want, but they won't get used unless you just feel like configuring a game as player one on one of the outside sets of controls.
