TheMadHatter Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 I feel like 8 buttons would be too much. But I didn't play much arcade yet still setting it up. Are there a lot of games with 8 buttons?

Rincewind Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 You can get away with 6 but 8 is best as the more modern consoles use 8 buttons, I use 8 and when I configure them I start from the left (closest to the joysticks) then if it only uses 4 buttons in the emulator then the ones left don't do anything, if its only 2 then theres 6 blanks an so on.... So really there is no point in not having 8 buttons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalzoic Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Yeah. If you want to play newer consoles and PC games 6 gives you a lot more to work with. If you're just sticking to older consoles and MAME then 6 is fine... until you decide to add something newer and could use the extra buttons. A lot of people compromise with 7 buttons instead.
