Maximun amount of controls needed
MYX:
4,016 controles needed. It would be the ultimate controle pannel. It will play every game ever built. It is 36 feet across and 12 feet deep. But to reach the buttons in the middle, you need to strap hockey sticks to your arms.
jjd:
No, its 4,017. I can't believe you missed that one.

4 8 way joysticks, 10 buttons per player, 4 spinners, 2 trackballs, 3 flight sticks, 4 four way joysticks, 2 miles of wire, a 10'X10' space to put the cabinet, $1,200....
that should cover all the games using the controls you specified as long as we are talking about Mame, NES, SNES, Genesis, and not talking about games like Sinistar, 720 degrees.

I believe you need 4 trackballs for Atari Football.

Your question doesn't really make sense. Did you mean to ask what the minimum number of controls would be?
NickG:
