Ah right, didn't think about that.
I had promised to post some pictures when i would have received the controllers and here they are:
The 2 competition pro usb, one bought from Vesalia and the transparent blue on ebay:
The X-Arcade solo which just arrived this morning from the shop Gremlin Solutions advised by Harisson:
Thanks all for the great advices
Now it's time for me to game...
See you in a few weeks. Hope the wife's very understanding.

You should've bought the dual X-Arcade version, so you could compete against your wife on MAME. There are many multiplayer games.
She doesn't really like arcade, she is more into nintendo handheld games... I had asked before buying the controller.
You can also use the controller with NES, SNES or N64 emulators.
There are a lot of shmups that are multiplayer, and MAME has a lot of them. MAME has a lot of games generally, almost 7.000 playable with the latest set (0.126), do you have it? If not, I suggest you d/l it and try some games out, I don't know them all by name, there are so many.
Thanks for the info mate. I'll download it tonight.
It's great that there are many multiplayer games available for MAME. I'm sure I'll manage to track down some titles that we can play in the living room.
