7 button layout
unclet:
If you are going to put emulators on your cabinet other than Mame, then you might want an additional button to use .... perhaps.

I personally never played many Neo Geo fighting games. Those are the only Neo Geo games where I think original button placement is critical. Otherwise, you can probably get away with just using them as they are in a 6-button layout.

I've considered going the 7-button route, but I've played on what I guess were cab conversions where the operator went against the norm and put the four buttons in a block pattern. It actually worked out fairly well, and would work fine on a 6-button layout.

That's what happens when operators get lazy. They cover up two holes from their SF layout control panel and just make it into a Neo Geo machine.

Ultimate Mortal Kombat III is the reason i decided to build a mame machine :applaud:
I woke up one morning with a serious NEED to play UMK III!
Isearched every where in town for one on ANY platform and none were to be had.
I even called friends that i knew had it and no luck, they sold'em.
So, here i am almost three later
