What the heck is the 7th button for on NEO-GEO games
rackoon:
O.K, maybe I don't remember right,
but I don't recall any cab with seven buttons per player.
I remember an upright that had many games on it ( at a bollwing alley) that I played several times, But I believe it only had four per player.

The 7th button allows you to play Capcom with 6 buttons, or Neo-Geo with 4 buttons, using the same bank of buttons.
For Capcom, you use:
O O O
O O O
x
For Neo-Geo, you use:
X X X
O O O
O

It's not about a game with 7 buttons it's a layout thing.

So they add the 7th button to get the neo geo feel. So wher you play games it goes like this.
x = unused

It plays way better that way. But you can certainly play the neo geo games like this if you want to.
