If you want to retain the Neo-Geo curve but use only 6 buttons, you could do what we did for this customer:

Thats cool and while I do like that, I think my best is just the standard 3 over 3.

When I was designing my 2 player fighting panel, I went with the 7 button layout.  I'm a big fan of the Neo-Geo games and wanted this layout on my panel.  I also used the same button colors as the Neo-Geo cabs.  Here's a closeup of my panel.

I also was just talking to another guy that said 7 button layout is good for NBA Jams so maybe I should just get 7.  :timebomb:

Jack Burton:

Even if you plan on playing console games I can't really think of any that would be suited to playing on a cab that use more than six buttons.

I am 99% sure that no fighting game needs more than six buttons.

Are there any recent schups or puzzle games  that use more than six buttons?

I would just go ahead and do the 7 button layout with the 7th in the Neo position if you aren't sure.  If you really don't like having it you can always just buy a button hole plug and put it in there.
