There's 10 buttons and a mode button (which is pretty useless) on each sidewiner controller. The daisy chain is VERY simple because there is no hack or anything required, all you do is plug one sidewinder into another, because all the gameport versions have a gameport plug-in behind the cord, kinda hidden. You usually can't see em on most pictues because there's a cover over them, but that's you can daisy chain up to 4 I believe Sidewinders, and all the buttons work on all the gamepads.
If you wanna get a bunch of gameport sidwinders, I suggest going to www.computergeeks.com since they sell em for 5 bucks each, thats a 4 player control panel for 20 plus shipping, not bad at all.
: First of all how many buttons on each controller? Second, how many can you daisy chain? Can you chain 4 and wire up a 4 player control panel with 6 buttons each? or can a gameport not support that much activity? -betacrash
