Does that require a full 6-button Street Fighter layout?

My wife likes anything involving the light guns.

My Sister likes Vs. DR. Mario, Frogger, Toobin, Bump 'n Jump, Gauntlet II, Asteroids, Mario Bros, and Joust. She will play Arch Rivals with me just to punch the other players. She won't shoot though :( Same with some hockey games, she will just go around checking.
My ex-roommate's GF loved Bubble Bobble, Puzzle Bobble, Frogger.
I'd suggest puzzle games, tons of them in mame. Qix might be a good one to try. I think ther is a jezball type game too.
Most of those were mentioned already :)
Depending on the era you were brought up in maybe she would like sexy reaction :) Actually, if you turn off the pr0n part of many of those mature puzzle games they are good puzzle games. Many have dipswitches to turn off the pr0n.

I managed to convince my wife to have the cocktail in the family room by running Galaga and Galaxian. :)
I managed to convince her to have the upright in the family room by running Wonderboy. :)
She also likes Bubble Bobble.
My daughter prefers the SMS games that she remembers as a child, Alex Kidd and Sonic.

My neighbors and I are are tyring to get her into shadow over mustara as we need a 4th player.
SO yeah, some generalisations based on the responses in this thread
puzzle games = great
Most classics = great
cute / novelty games = OK
newer shoot em ups (raiden, etc etc) = not so much
fighters = not so much, some exceptions
beat em ups = not so much, except golden axe for some reason?
driving games = nope
