Practically EVERYONE uses the "Pushbutton with horizontal microswitch." These are very durable, look nice, and really there isn't much point in getting anythind different.

Just so you know though, I did enquire about the competition buttons once. They do have a unique feel. They are convex meaning they curve up (at the top of the button) vs. the horizontal ones which are concave, curving down. Tekken 3 uses these kind of buttons. They are very light to push and I actually liked the feel of them but some told me that for a mamecab you'll definitely want the horizontals.

: I'm sure this has probably been discussed before, but I can't seem to find anything. What are the differences in the different types of Happ Pushbuttons?

: Competition? Ultimate? Horizontal Microswitch?

: Do they look or feel different from each other? Are they at different quality levels?

: I'm just looking for some info, and to get people's opinions.

: Thanks!

: P.S. I do know what microswitches are. I'm not looking for a definition of that. :)
