Choose by general type:
Lever type
A general type of Arcade Buttons that is operated by tilting a lever with a round grip on the top 360 ° in any direction. In particular, the levers of Sanwa Denshi, a long-established manufacturer of arcade parts, are popular because they are light and easy to rotate.
Lever-less type
The lever-less type is a type of Arcade Buttons that allows you to input directions with just a button operation. Since it is also used by professional gamers, it has become a hot topic in the e-sports industry. It is recommended for fighting games because you can enter commands in the shortest time.
Choose by play style:
Desk holder
If you want to use the Arcade Buttons on your desk, we recommend the wide top plate type, which has a large size. In particular, the area under the button has a space to put your hand on, which reduces hand fatigue when playing for a long time.
Another advantage is that the operation is stable because it can be moved around the wrist placed on the top plate. Since the size of the product is large, it weighs a certain amount, and it is also attractive that it is easy to stabilize on a desk.
Knee rest
If you want to use the Arcade Buttons on your lap, choose a compact and lightweight type. Large objects such as the wide top plate type do not fit well on the knees, and if they are too heavy, the knees may hurt after playing for a long time. The model with a weight of around 2 kg is recommended because it does not put a burden on the knee and allows stable operation.
