I dunno of any pre-made ones with more, but if you're wiring it yourself, I don't see why not. As long as one of the connections is Ground, you can have 14 other connections that can be used for directionals+buttons if you don't need +5V, a Select/Coin button, etc.

I believe I also cheesed things a bit by using the shield of the connector for ground.

Pretty sure I have 10 buttons, 4 directions, and +5V on mine.
