Yeah I thought of that too... but I'm ok with it as is though as it's original whether I like it or not  ;)

Excellent work! I am looking for the original blue and orange nintendo buttons, videogameparts.com is out of stock do you know anywhere else that would sell them? They are out of stock for the nintendo marquee bulb, is that a common bulb that can be found at a Lowes or HD?

The buttons are a pain to find... If someone would repro them, they would sell well!

It's a 100V bulb and is special...  I've never purchased one but everytime it's brought up most people say topbulb.com is the place to get it.

I ordered mine from Mike's Arcade.  They were pricey ($15) but at the end of the day and over the life of the cab $15 is nothing for some original Nintendo buttons!

stealthie:
What's the difference between NOS Nintendo buttons and the $5 Nintendo buttons from Mike's Arcade?  Is it just the originality factor of owning a real Nintendo button?
