How many analog joysticks in MAME games?

[jerryjanis]

I just ordered a pile of Sidewinder Dual Strikes...  I was wondering at MOST how many analog joysticks are required?  What are the games that max it out?

I can think of some games that might require 2 analog joystick ports:

 2 analog inputs
---------------------
Warlords, Tournament Table          - 4 players each with paddles
World Series                                   - 2 players with baseball bat-like joysticks
Terminator 2                                   - 2 players with positional guns
(Etc. on the other 2 player gun games)
(Etc. on the other 2 player games that use baseball bats)

 3 analog inputs
---------------------
Beast busters  - 3 players with positional guns
Revolution X     - 3 players with positional guns
Lucky and Wild - 2 guns + a steering wheel

Is there anything important that I'm missing?  Any vital 3 or 4 player games?  At this point I would probably draw the line at 2 analog devices (thus 2 Sidewinders)...  Thanks!

How many did you order and did you buy extra?  get a good deal?  I am probably going to need to buy 2 or 3 more soon.

Starwars is one more.

Pure flight stick...  (Plus another for a throttle)

I was hoping that the company who is making usb interfaces would come up with a basic board design before I got that far.  They have one version that has 3 axis and handles any range of pots... The chip costs are low... lets see if they can put it on a small board fora  reasonable price....

I'm also looking at that for a full scan, non-monitor dependent light gun solution.... But thats for another month...

I got 5 of them from Hegemonypower@yahoo.com for $10.25 apiece plus a whopping $18.25 for shipping...  Seemed like a fair price.

I lost an ebay auction for 1 joystick with the guy and made an offer for a bunch of them...  I don't know if he would do it again for you, but I don't see why he wouldn't if he has plently left...
