Micro-Leaf™ Arcade Pushbutton Switches Reviews?

I stumbled across these Micro button/leaf switches the other day and was wondering if anyone had tried them out.  They sound intriguing but pricey (especially since I already have the cherry switches).

I was considering getting them to replace the joystick switches.

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

Also im afraid they only fit push buttons, not joysticks.

They are nice though, I have a bunch for my cabinet. They're almost silent and you can hardly feel them actuate.

I think they're the best alternative to leafs.

I have one on my Centipede.

Anyone use these for Track N Field?   Do you get the tactile feedback that a leaf gives you?
