Most intuitive 6-button layout

Unless your hand is different than the rest of ours or you have REALLY tall buttons.......your hand naturally cups anyhow. Put your hand down on your desk right now and notice the base of your fingers rise up exactly where a bottom row of buttons rest.

456/123 simply means you have to put your buttons higher on the machine than you normally would be accustomed to seeing.

I'm not sure if you know, but you can reassign buttons on a game-by-game basis in mame.

I think I'll try that to start. And yes, I did know that I can remap buttons per game. Thanks a lot everyone!  :cheers:

Oh my gosh!  This has always been a hot topic.  You will eventually regret you did six buttons and want to correct the button layout for NeoGeo.  So go 7!

    123
    456
   7

You can set up a the config to play all NeoGeo games with 7456.
It's awesome!

I'm not sure that I've ever played any Neo-Geo games, but I'll keep button 7 in mind. I'll try some NG games on my PC and see if I like them. Any recommendations for the best NG games?

A good 80% of neogeo games are fighting games. so if you dont like fighting games i wouldnt even bother with it. i have always felt neogeo was a huge let down.

i have always seen people praise this system and try to config thier panels just to use this system. Then I got a good set for it of roms and it was a huge dissapointment. Ok its almost all fighting games. I can deal with that but cmon. there is alot of knock offs of each other and just so close to the same thing.

dont get me wrong they do have a few cool games but how any system could have so many games of the same gender and that much alike and still survive is amazing in itself. a good following indeed.
