Do you need a QUIT button on your control panel??

this might sound like a daft question but whilst i was planning my cp layout I suddenly thought that if I don't somehow wire up a QUIT button how am I going to quit a game and go back to the mame front end?

on all of the cp's i've seen i've not seen any that specifically mention a quit button.

Veinman:
If you are using an IPAC, I believe the default "escape" key combo is P1 & P2.

Personally, I don't like that, and am putting in a dedicated Escape key button.

eggedd2k:
thanks.

AlanS17:
Yeah you can quit any game by hitting P1 and P2 start buttons simultaneously with an Ipac. However, you might be better off just remapping it. I've had plenty of times where 2 people go to hit start at the same time (especially in fighting games) and the games accidentally exits. In that case you'd want an "exit" button or a less sensitive exit button combination.

i'll have to check my i-pac pcb. does it have a quit terminal that a button can be wired to??
