Best joysticks for specific game genres?

Well Gyruss is somewhat simple for movement but its not just right & left. Gyruss used an 8-way joystick with a circular motion and I find the motion to be nice and fluid.
I also find the JLW to be good for my casual play of shmups.
I would however like to experiment with some mods to tighten up the throw on the JLW.

Endprodukt:

Do it! I used 2-3 layers of heat-shrink tubing. Make the JLW MUCH tighter.

Guess I'm the only one who prefers a Happ competition for just about everything.  I like ball tops, but I feel the bat top gives more control.  The competitions, quick return to neutral feels so good.

I can't imagine that an original Pac-Man joystick is not the very best stick for playing Pac-Man. For that matter, I would guess that a solid 4 way leaf would be the best for classic 4 way games.

Zippy 4-way with the cloverleaf restrictor is great for DK & DK Jr.
