Sorry for all the questions but do you guys prefer the Leaf Switch or Micro Switch joysticks? i've heard pros & cons of both but i'm still not sure which i'd like to go with. Thanks for your input.

I prefer the WICO leaf joysticks over microswitch joys. The leafs can require a little tweaking, but if you are old school early 80's etc. These might be a bit more nostalgic as they make no audible clicking sound and I just like the feel of the WICO's (throw / reach).

It is all preference of the individual as I have some friends who swear by using microswitch joys

Do you remember if games like X-men, the Simpsons, and Ninja Turtles 2 used leaf or micro?
Goz:
I want to say from memory they are leaf, but I am not 100% sure.

TMNT made in 89 and XMEN made in 92, they are likely leaf.


Sorry,

My Xmen cab has a red and purple ball top that APPEAR to be original, and they are both microswitch joys.  

However, I can't be positive they are original since my other 2 joys on there are black Happ bat style joys, so all 4 might have been replaced.
