I am pretty new to the arcade scene - more experience with pinball machines.
I have just bought a JAMMA cabinet and a 1940 in 1.

The Cabinet has two buttons for each player but I am about to add a third.

Is three enough as I am not that interested in fighting games?
 
three should be perfect. aside from fighters like mortal kombat and street fighter, most non fighters use 2-3 buttons. so with three you should be fine playing most games.
 
If it has any Neo Geo games on it, those will require a fourth button. Other than that, very very few non fighting games use more than three buttons. You might want to add a trackball if you plan on playing Centipede and those sorts of games.
 
Pretty much only Neo Geo fighters use over 3 buttons. Even some like Fatal Fury and Art of Fighting 3 your fine with only 3 buttons. If your not interested in the fighters I woundn't worry about the 4th button, also after the 3rd button your going past jamma.
