Once again, about buttons

<< < (2/20) > >>

oyama82:
the 7 buttons are required to have an easy panel for both neogeo and street fighter games

the reason I wouldnt buy the u360s is because they dont have the original arcade feeling
you better go with 2 happ,seimitsu,sanwa or zippyy sticks
and I would put a seimitsu stick modified for 4way in the middle of the control panel,to play the older games like pacman

7 is not necessary for any of the classic street fighter games, as far as I am aware (I don't play fighters very often)...However I agree that it is worth having 4 buttons in the bottom row for neo geo games.

Aside from the lack of "clickiness" for people who are used to microswitch joysticks, I think a u360 with a restrictor plate fitted feels just fine in terms "original arcade feeling".  But again this is a matter of opinion and personal preference.

There is something to be said for a physically restricted 4-way.  GGG sells a dedicated "True4" 4-way that is very reasonably priced.

That's not what he was saying.

unaska,

Neo Geo had alot of good fighting games.  If you go through the "Post your CP thread" you will see many 7 button layouts.  3 on the top row, 4 on the bottom.  Those bottom 4 buttons mimic the Neo Geo layout.  So, for an esxtra $2 per player you get the actual Neo Geo layout.  At the same time, you get the 6 button layout that Street Fighter used.

This is what i am doing, but since I have hte u360s already, I am actually adding two more buttons to the right for N64 support (8 buttons needed).  But I want a diamond like shape to mimic the N64s "c-pad".  It's an extra $4 per player so I'd rather do it now and not use it than not do it and regret it later.

That last sentence is key though regarding 7 buttons.  It's easier to do it now and not use it than to do 6 buttons now and regret it later.

Read up on Neo Geo fighting games.  There are some good ones (Samarai Showdown) that rival the Street Fighter series.

actually neogeo fighters are much better than capcom ones
king of fighters 2002 for example
so you need 7 buttons as I and the other guys suggested,4 buttons to the bottom and 3 upper
