Hi Rohan, thanks.

I'll make a picture asap. The buttons....still gotta check them out. They feel like leafs, definitly no microswitches (no clicks). I don't think I need to replace them.

WIll post with more info...

RayB:
The buttons are not leafs. They are actually like the "safety switches" you find just inside arcade cabinet doors. Know what I mean? The kind of switch in a cab you can push in or pull out for the power. But here obviously they only push in.



Level42:
Yeah checked it and you're right. And these switches are microswitches really....
Kinda early game with microswitches, could this be a first ??

Still gotta take that marquee shot, will do tomorrow...

Microswitches were used in games from the very beginning. It is just that leaf switches were more common.

Level42:
OK I always thought leafs were first because they came from the pinball machines...
So what switches does computerspace use ?
