Actualloy people do it differently. Some do it like that. It depends on if the button is on the top row or bottom row. Many wire it like this:
456
4123
Either way you do it it is easy to set mame up using the ctrlr files to have everything mapped the way you want.

i stand corrected..
i mainly wanted to emphasize the fact that most place the 7th button diagonally below the lower row. i am planning on using a 6 button layout while still being able to enjoy neogeo games. it looks good on paper so far, but i will have to play test it..

Mine:

with a slight curve.

Here's how the hotrod joystick is laid out:

Scroll half-way down the page.
This is not exactly the standard mame layout, but I believe most mame versions support the hotrod.
This is basically the way I'm laying my panel out - but add button-tops for the 8-way joysticks, add a 4-way, a spinner, and a trackball, oh and I have an administrative "shift."
I guess I was attacked by the CP creep.

I always play:
jamma:
123
neo:
123 (4)
capcom/fighter:
123
456
Neo & fighter combo: BEST LAYOUT
123(4)
456
on a 6 button layout double the neo's 4'th button with the #6 button
123
456 <- (neo # 4)
As a frequent street fighter and Neo player... the 7 button layout witht the neo #4 on the top row is the only way to go. I can almost stand playing the traditional 6 button with the neo using the #6 button.
The 7 button with a slight curve is even better.
That all jamma though: Don't know how to set that that up in mame ?
