A normal 8 way joystick alone does not work well for Tron.  The actual Tron had an unusual restrictor that made hitting diagonals more difficult (so you would not zig zag all over the place on the 4-way suited light cycle phase).  So you will also need a repro Tron restrictor like this:

The other alternative is to use an analog flight stick and use a special MAME analog joystick map to make the diagonals harder to hit.  This actually works quite well.
