Yeah, I have one of those on something around the garage-- dunno what it s
though. Maybe a 9010 pod?

Those are fine as long as you can get at the screw. The multigames tend to
have the PCB around the connector so the screws are hard to get at for the
same reason a lever is hard to get at...

Just having a replaceable socket on the boards I do functional-testing on
works pretty well...
