Mine has 1 and 2 player start (essential), ESCAPE, TAB, and ENTER.

The ENTER key facilitates the use of frontends to selct a game. It also helps out while in the settings mode.

Another trick is to tell your emulator to use ENTER as your PAUSE key, since you don't need it during gameplay. Saves a button.

You will need a way to "insert coin", but I hooked that one to the coin door.

: What keys would a person normally want represented on the control panel for non-game-play buttons. Things like START buttons, COIN buttons, TAB, EXIT, ENTER, etc

: Isn't there a way to EXIT by pressing both START buttons at the same time? I thought I remember reading that somewhere. Also...why do I see a button for ENTER on a lot of control panels, what purpose does that serve.

: Just trying to iron out details of what buttons to put on my control panel. Thanks.
