Like pink was saying, you may want to use a different layout for different games. For example,
Games that use 3 buttons you'd probably want to use 3 buttons in a row like:
123
and not;
12
3
Then, 4 button games you might want to use
12
34
instead of
123
4
I guess you can see what I'm saying. No, you don't really need any more than 4 buttons except for the Capcom fighters (sf2) and Mortal Kombat (uses 5). But having 6 buttons gives you more versitility on the layout of each game, even though you'll probably never use them all at once.
