Vertical games button assignment

[rygars#1#fan]

Can someone tell me if for vertical mame games that 2 buttons is enough or do some require 3 buttons.

This will help me in deciding my new control panel layout for my next cocktail cab project.

Thanks.

This would help me also. Has anybody got a list or something of all the different game groups control panel configs?? (E.g. Joystick + One Button vertical Game List, Joy + One horizontal game List, Spinner Game List, Trackball + Button Game List etc...)

Thanks

There is a project called Controls.dat that documents arcade game control panel layouts for MAME, so the data is readily available. Don't have the direct answer to your initial query but look at:
