I believe that's what Turnarcades does for their bartops to squeeze all of the buttons in there:

u_rebelscum:
I like button 1 on the bottom for 3 button or less games, however for these games I like to map:
1 2 3
1 2 3
x
if I'm using my seven button CP (a hotrodse). Since I have other CPs, I wired them "funny", but they go with this fine. For example, I have a rotary CP with "two" buttons mirrored on each side the the sticks (b b stick b b). If I used mame's defaults, it would go b5 --BINGO! Either that, or I was attempting to say "before" but it was too many letters to type-- stick b1 b2, but with the same remap as above, that's b2 b1 stick b1 b2.
:soapbox: IMO, with mame's ease of remapping, the physical button wired layout is very different than the game button mapped layout.
For example, the physical wired layout could be:
q w e
a s d
z
the SF family game mapped layout:
1 2 3
4 5 6
-
the neogeo family game mapped layout:
- - -
2 3 4
1
and the 3 button and less games mapped layout (IMO the bottom is more important):
1 2 3
1 2 3
-
Also, I don't play SF type games much, so if I cared about it, the physical wired layout should match the games I play (3 button & less) mapped layout to mame's default mapping. (But since I remap anyway, I don't care.) [/rant=off] ;D
BTW, the ctrlr file is the way to mass remap.

I've asked about something like this, but at the wrong place apparently.
Please, do go on....
