Title: Control panel? N64 configuratuons
Post by: beast8812 on February 14, 2012, 03:09:27 pm
I'm building a Mame cabinet that will play numerous emulators. One of the main ones being N64. Its going to be a 4 player panel and I want to be able to play 4 player games like goldeneye. Technically n64 has 9 buttons. I was gonna do 8 per person since playstation uses the second most with 8. Can I get away with that?  Should I just have it so I can plug in 64 controllers? How would I add that for four people?  This all pretty new to me and I'm trying to plan right the first time. I've seen a lot of examples where people only have 4 buttons for player 3 and 4 and I'm not sure how that would be enough if there playing any of the new emulators.  Anyways any help, ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
