Pretty much anything that used to be arcade games would work, some of them (The better made ones) actually map the games automatically, like Psychic Force 2012 and Gundam Renpou vs Zeon&DX

Just a friendly reminder most (if not, all) of these games will require you to go to your options and set (default) first.

Other games such as Star Gladiator 2 don't set a proper layout, but you can easily search for it, in my case, for said game I use
(A) (B) (K)
(M) (x) (Chouhatsu/taunt)

If your game doesn't have an easy access to set a taunt, always remember to use it, because games like Star Gladiator 2 actually use it for moves! Characters like Bilstein use it to start floating, so it is important to have them.

Games like Marvel vs Capcom 2 and Capcom vs SNK 2, use them while you hold A and press Start, so unleast your game needs it, then there is probably work arounds for it.

I've changed the format of first post to look better. Added a better link for VGA compatibility.

I realized the Dreamcast Twin stick works pretty well with Vigilante 8. The left stick is assigned the D-Pad (up/down/left/right). The right stick is assigned the L & right triggers (left and right respectively). D-pad down is assigned to both up/down on the right stick as well. ABXY button are assigned to the two buttons/two triggers.

4 Wheel Thunder also has pretty flexible button mapping allowing you to use ABXYD buttons and both twin sticks for unique functions when using a twin stick.

Frogger 2 plays great with the green goblin. And obviously the homebrew Drill and Sturmwind
