Leaf style Pushbuttons and their differences
Malenko:
I think I'll get a couple buttons from Randy and put them on the off hand of the bad dudes and see if anyone can tell the difference
EDIT: self imposed clean up duty.

+1. Although I haven't tried the others and can't offer critiques, I do have 12 of these and love them for their far smaller activation length vs a microswitch. You can also "tune" them with slight bends if you want.
While these weren't made in the 80's and can't be considered true leaf buttons in the most literal of senses, they will make a fine substitute for nearly anyone unless you have over 5 years training in soft-style arts.
Also, after reading X2's post, this is how I think of him while he plays with that amazing trigger touch.

Get some real "Arcade" Leaf controls.

Easy said... The only drawbacks are: They are scarce and I'm pretty sure they aren't cheap.
In the real world, we have only a few options.

I think it also depends what you want to do. In my case I didn't want to replace my Happ buttons entirely, so I opted to swap out the cherry microswitch with a microleaf one from GGG. They snapped right in place (a bit awkwardly until I figured out how to do it) and they worked great. It was a quick upgrade and I don't have to maintain/adjust them in the future, unlike real leaf switches.
Worked for me!

Hmm... Yeah. That could be a valid option. Mixed pushbuttons, covering the different types of games.
