Why 7 buttons?
cammada:
I was browsing around looking at others people control panels and there were several controls panels that has 7 pushbuttons per player. I could not figure out what is the 7th is use for and which games that will require 7th button? ???
regards,
Cammada
wweumina:
Neo-geo games use 4 buttons. People like them in a row.
Donkbaca:
Also run for mk3
cammada:
I see. However I look up all the list of games from Neo Geo and there was 160 games. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Neo_Geo_games) is that right or are there other company games that use 4 buttons in a row or just Neo Geo?
I guess I will stick with 6 buttons per player as it look more traditonal that way to me, don't you think?

I'm glad I went 7 buttons myself even if the 7th doesn't get used that often. Plus you can set mame to default to the bottom 4 on all neogeo games. See post 15 from this thread. It explains this concept and there is a link to how to set this up.
