The old colecovision ones. If you can't find one of those, you'll have to make do with an atari 2600 version. If you can't find one of those, PM markrvp to see if he's got any of the madcatz controllers he uses for old stuff like that. He's a soldering tool machine ;D

Definitive 4-way Vertical List
Horizontal 4-way games
Pretty much every 4-way game will use less than 3 buttons.

ummm? if you read the posts, you link to it was a failure. ( 4 way vert) been searching for this answer for 5 years my self
there is NO good way to sort Mame to controlls that I have found.
this question has came across many time a not 1 single time has there been a good answer. always some one links to a search they did but it always leads to a bad game or missing games.
No ofence ment (JM) I value all your imput you have to put in but This one time you happen to be wrong
the Question is a valid one with no answer to be found yet.
I myself have sorted out al vertical games and tried to do this myself , Just by playing them but I seem to get sidetract and forget i am only testing the games for how many buttons . 4 way or 8 way
I am just not able to keep the mission in my mind :-\

If you read the question asked by the original poster, both links answer the qeustion raised, therefore, it wasn't a failure.
Furthermore, if Paige's exhaustive list in one of those links doesn't answer the question you just asked, then you're looking for more info than just a list of games to answer your question, and you should revise what you're looking for. To add, Howard also gave info on how to sort this out, and even went to the extreme length (for him, anyway) of spoon-feeding the code necessary to generate such a list that would yet again, answer your question.
I think there's more to your question than you're letting on dawayne. Those were two EXCELLENT answers to what you did ask. :)
