Summary	08865: famicom and clones: Famicom Vaus controller mixup
Description	The device "Taito Arkanoid Vaus Controller (FC)" in MAME features one button and an extra port, which seems to be a mix of two different controllers: - The Vaus controller which came with Arkanoid 1, with one button and no ports. - The Vaus controller which came with Arkanoid 2, with an extra port for daisy-chaining controllers/accessories and what seems to be an extra button.
Steps To Reproduce	- Go to the Tab menu -> Slot devices -> exp - Select "vaus". An extra subexp port will appear. - Press Reset System - Go to Input settings -> Input Assignments (This system). You'll see a single button being mapped, called "Paddle button".
Additional Information	MSX and NES versions featured no ports, one button and an adjustment screw next to the paddle.
