About this deal

The release of the Nintendo 64 and GameCube contributed to the popularity and success of the Super Smash Bros series of fighting games. This in turn increased the demand for the N64 and GameCube-like controllers, so Nintendo Switch has official N64 and GameCube controllers. How much pressure do you want to have to apply? Gateron clears are the lightest touch at 35g; greens from Gateron and others are around 60-70g. Novelkeys has the Kailh Pro Heavy series which has 70g activation force and 1.7mm travel. Keyboard switch pushbuttons (aka KSPs, or mechanical switch pushbuttons) use industry standard Cherry MX or clone switches inside of them in some capacity to achieve that effect, but with some distinctive advantages. Repeat for other buttons you are replacing (recommend you go one at a time to avoid crosswiring buttons)

Durability. The average Sanwa microswitch is rated for 1 million activations. Some Cherry MX switches are rated up to 100 million (though a more conservative 50-70 million is about the average).There is no single best switch for fighting games. As always, it all boils down to preference. However, I will provide some guidelines on the different types of switches if you need some help to decide on what switch to use. How much travel do you want before activation? If you want faster activation, look for shorter travel (speed series from Kailh or Cherry - 1.1mm to 1.4mm). If you want longer activation distance, look for 2.0mm or longer (most switches). (Keep in mind there are activation distances and bottom out distances). Remove the existing button (for snap-ins, consider using a purpose-built tool to remove them without breaking tabs, especially for Sanwas) Layer Shift/OmniArcade O720s. Coming soon (May? June?) in 24mm and 30mm. From early pictures, switches are PCB mount. LS says these will have hot swap capability for switches.

B0XX 20MX. Installs into 24mm Sanwa OBSF buttons (similar idea to the Paradise Arcade OBS-MX). Comes preinstalled with Gateron Clear (linear, 35g) switches. Appears to use PCB-mount switches and cannot be swapped without desoldering/resoldering. If you damage your controller, there is most likely a warranty or guarantee that the device will help you with a free repair or replacement.Fighting games are pretty uncomfortable! The device in your hand gets quite strained with all the repeated hits.
