I believe that's what Turnarcades does for their bartops to squeeze all of the buttons in there:

u_rebelscum:
I like button 1 on the bottom for 3 button or less games, however for these games I like to map:

 1 2 3
 1 2 3
x

if I'm using my seven button CP (a hotrodse).  Since I have other CPs, I wired them "funny", but they go with this fine.  For example, I have a rotary CP with "two" buttons mirrored on each side the the sticks (b b  stick  b b).  If I used mame's defaults, it would go b5 --BINGO! Either that, or I was attempting to say "before" but it was too many letters to type--  stick  b1 b2, but with the same remap as above, that's b2 b1 stick b1 b2.

 :soapbox: IMO, with mame's ease of remapping, the physical button wired layout is very different than the game button mapped layout.

For example, the physical wired layout could be:

 q w e
 a s d
z

the SF family game mapped layout:

 1 2 3
 4 5 6
-

the neogeo family game mapped layout:

 - - -
 2 3 4
1

and the 3 button and less games mapped layout (IMO the bottom is more important):

 1 2 3
 1 2 3
-

Also, I don't play SF type games much, so if I cared about it, the physical wired layout should match the games I play (3 button & less) mapped layout to mame's default mapping.  (But since I remap anyway, I don't care.) [/rant=off]  ;D


BTW, the ctrlr file is the way to mass remap.

I've asked about something like this, but at the wrong place apparently.
Please, do go on....
