I was at a water park this past weekend and they had an arcade with one of these machines in it. I just loved the feel of the joysticks. No clickity click, very springy, no corners in the diagonals. I'm almost positive they were leaf style.

Any suggestions would be appreciated...


Pik4chu:

They are leaf switches indeed, I have the cab sitting in my garrage Ill snap a few pics for you when I get home.

and I love the feel too. smooth and quite springy.

TMNT shipped with the Wico leafswitch joystick. 

Jabba:

Thanks guys. I really liked the feel of these joysticks.

What other joysticks, in your opinion, would have this same feel (i.e., leaf style)

Thanks!

Kremmit:

Nothing else feels quite like a Wico leaf.  I have a few used ones I could sell.

A Happ 49-way uses a grommet, and has round restriction (no corners), but the feel's definately different.  They're on sale from Happ through the end of the month.

Hmm, actually, a Monroe joystick feels pretty close.  They use a ball-pivot instead of a grommet.  Monroe's have a really short handle, though, so you would need either a metal panel or to top-mount it.  I think Nostrebor has one for sale in the Buy/Sell/Trade forum.
