Ideas on button combos

OK, will the XNA 3.0 support button combos. I mean is there a way for it to accept them? I mean the normal zune does so thus the XNA should to right.
Let me just say this is what I'm thinking for for the games that I'll be making, I'll probably use the GB layout because it's so easy.

U, D, L, R
Center = A
Back = B
Play/Pause = Start

And then of course combos could happen. But I mean will combos be accepted?
I'd like to know that way I can begin to plan out RPGs. I mean remaking of Pokemon could definatly happen. And such other platform games. But srsly combos yes no? I'd like to know.

The buttons are already mapped differently see the FAQ topic

Ok, well I'm sorry.

Yeah you can do combos easy... same way you do in with PC games.

Create a combo array and have it reset every few seconds. if the buttons are pressed in a certain order.. then bam... you got a combo...

But, how would you ever exit the game?

play/pause = start
that could open options like resume game or quit game

The Zune doesn;t respond to fast from what Ive seen. I doubt button combos would make it any better.
