Are these triple buttons any good?

If these are good, I thought they might save some space on a control panel?

I am sure they would work just fine, but I personally would not use them for gameplay.

They are trivial pursuit buttons.  They are nice, but not intended for gameplay.  Might be good for menu buttons though.

He's talking about admin buttons... (Enter, Esc, Tab, Pause, that sort of thing)

It would be good to be Coin/start1/start2 all in the same button. That is the only decent use I see for it.

No they look like a standard deer hunter button.  They are pretty cool looking actually, aside from the obvious trivial pursuit coloring.  What's good about them is the fact that they take a decal very well, so you can make them look like whatever with a print out and some clear contact paper.  

I'm not big on menu buttons either, but sometimes they are needed.  Granted not on my upright, but I might put them on my cocktail to save some space as it'll need a few admin buttons and it'll be ipac free.

1) Apollo... whos your god?

2) Howard... you ACTUALLY LIKE something???  Wow!

I don't think you would want them for anything but menus (others mentioned) unless you could change the yellow to a blue.  Then it would be great for kids and that one 3 color button game.

But you should be able to find 3 buttons that you have complete control over for about 50c more then that.

Not really a deal... and you cant put 2 of these next to each other...

I think this would be good for admin buttons.
Red=esc
Green=enter
Yellow=pause
I put in a bid.  We'll see.
