No - see my page, you can get 2-players, 6 buttons each out of one.

Sorry, my mistake. I forgot to include coins and start buttons.

No, your coins and start buttons may cause problems (ghosting - lost inputs) but you can get a SF layout for the action buttons with no problem.

That looks like an ACER keyboard encoder. I have hack those in the past. Easy to hack compare to the others ones I did, however that descricption you mentioned about 2 player having 8 buttons each, he! forget it, your wasting your time. Get yourself a real encoder and you will save plenty of time and money. Save that HACK job for your next JUKEBOX project, thats whats its good for.

Not in my case...
hacked several keyboards and as soon as I added 5 I get CASPER.
A good hack however for SFII is a digital Logitech Wingman. Uses common ground for all inputs.
