8 buttons too much?
Dafu:
I am planning of having 8 buttons per player, in two rows of 4 (the curved rows design). I can't actually think of any arcade game that uses 8, but since I plan to play SNES as well it seemed right (4 buttons, 2 shoulders, start, select = 8). Are there any arcade games that use this many buttons? If not I'm thinking maybe I should instead wire P1/P2 Starts to snes starts, and go with 7 buttons, 3 on each row and 1 offset diagonally.
DashRendar:
There are no arcade games that use that many--
But if you have a few more buttons, you could have a keyboard! :lol
Gorotsuki:
It's not finished yet, but
I'm using 8 buttons.
6 for joystick, and
2 for trackball.
KapnKerfuffle:
Can't think of any with 8 buttons. But I'm going with 7 buttons for my next panel to accomodate the NEO-GEO. 3 on top and 4 on bottom for the A,B,C,D button configuration found on the NEO-GEO cabs.
Malenko:
why not the street fighter layout and put a coin/ select button next to start? most people have 3, 6 or 7 (the hybrid NeoGeo/Street Fighter layout) so you could use the 7th button for select?
