Question about 4 player games
JoeyJoeJo:
I'm wanting to build a 4 player cabinet and was wondering about buttons. How many should each player have? I'd like to be compatible with as many games as possible. From what I've seen online, most everyone gives players 1 and 2 7 buttons, but do players 3 and 4 need this many?
Also, which games use the most buttons?
brophog:
The common build is 6 buttons for players 1 and 2 and 3 buttons for players 3 and 4.
shardian:
If you don't plan on playing playstation, x-box, or other consoles that require alot of buttons, then you should need no more than 4 buttons for p3 and p4 (Really, you shouldn't need more than 3).
If you are going to play console games in your cabinet, then you would need all of the buttons required for the console.
This gets crowded though, so you should consider just using controllers for p3 and p4 if consoles are in the picture.
Hoopz:
There are some 4 player games that use 4 buttons though. The D&D games in particular.
shardian:
The 7th button for p1 and p2 is for aesthetic purposes to allow accurate button placement for Neo-Geo.
To me, this is highly overrated. Of course, I'm not a huge Neo Geo fan either.
