for mame and and most other games that support joystick, you just map the 2nd player to the joy button, similar to the modular example up there.

ex:  up/down/left/right goes to p1 joy
button 1-6 to p1 buttons
button 7-10 to p2 joy
button 11-16 to p2 buttons
button 16-20 to admin buttons
buttton 21, etc... you should get the point now.....

if you want, you can always assign the up/down/left/right to the buttons and you still won't notice a difference....

The GPWiz is probably the best option for a add-on to get more buttons

Only one emulator that I have tried needed player 2 to be on a separate controller.  Everything else has worked like xmenxmen said.  If you have seen my lap/desk top CP boxes they both share 1 GPwiz, I just used a DB25 cable to carry the necessary wiring over to the player 2 box.

Duh! I should have known that one...

One other quick question re: the GP...does it emulate a keyboard, like the IPac? Based on it's description, it is a gamepad encoder....and does not emulate a keyboard.....can anyone confirm that?

It is seen as a game pad and not a keyboard by Windows.  If you want a keyboard get the KeyWiz.
