What about when you need 2 joys and some buttons...oh...2 buttons are ok but no < 2 for that second one, right?

I browsed and haven't seen any 16 button pads...12 maybe...

It's actually an encoder that is seen by the system as a gamepad here is a link to one vendor on Ebay ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/NO-Delay-USB-Encoder-PC-to-Joystick-Arcade-MAME-Multicade-2pin-Happ-Push-Button-/191065889930?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c7c6a1c8a ) (NOTE : this one is for Joysticks with microswitches but they do have ones for Japanese style joysticks as well with the 5 pin interface - just be sure to order the proper one for the joysticks you are using. ) -- They are great for single player setups (esp. at $10 including the wiring and shipping) but are limited in the number of inputs so if doing 2 or 4 player panels you would be better off with a different encoder like the Xin-mo you mentioned or Ipac. (though you could use more than one of these on the same system if you have the USB inputs on the system)

PL1:
For more flexibility in firmware choices, consider the KADE.

It can act as a keyboard-style or a gamepad-style encoder and easy to customize.
