Any 4 player games use 6 buttons???
borals:
I have seen a few CP's that have 6 or 7 buttons for all 4 players, is there any need for this?
Is there a game that requires all 4 players to have this amount of buttons?
Fibonacci:
When I looked into this for my 4P cabinet, I couldn't find any that took more than 4 + start.
If you are only going to have one cabinet, I suspect the 6 buttons are to make it look balanced and uniform across all four payers.
Mr Kray:
Although I haven't looked into this myself, I imagine the 6 or 7 buttons for players 3 and 4 are to allow for consoles or console emulation (SNES, Genesis etc.)
DaveMMR:
If you're only playing MAME, the outer players only need 4 buttons since no 4-player game in MAME utilizes more than 4 buttons (and most of them, only 2 or 3).

I set mine up with 7 + start for all four players for dreamcast and snes.
