Happs Competition or regular buttons?
Kaeru the Frog:
Anyone have any opinions on either? I'm going to start my fist control panel and I seem to be stuck on this problem. Its probably not even that important but I'd like to get it right.

If im not mistaken , i think the competition buttons are the kind that have the convex and not concave surfaces, but i could be mistaken. It can get kind of confusing keeping all this stuff straight sometimes. lol.
I am working on my first project as well and man - o -man it can sure be confuseing and down right frustrating just trying to get a concrete idea nailed down on how you want to do things in your own panel. :)

I prefer the ultimate horizontal pushbuttons to the competition pushbuttons..
more authentic with older arcades :)
(it's not a leaf but the style of button is more authentic)
only application I have heard people like the competition is for fighter games..
spidermonkey:
What button do you recall using when playing in arcades ? Concave or convex ? 90% of the games I played in the past used concave buttons weather it be micro switch or leaf switch so for me the obvious choice was concave.
Odonadon:
I don't remember EVER using convex buttons in the arcade. It could be because I haven't been to an arcade in a few years, and when I did go I usually played the older ones :). But I can't imagine using convex. I'm sure it's fine for Playstation and XBox controllers, but this is arcade stuff. It just ain't right :)
