ALternate to a 4-way nintendo joystick?

I don't know... a JLF is a good substitute for me...

The shorter vs. nintendo sticks show up on ebay pretty often and they are usually cheap. If you find one of those, you will only need to find the longer stick and a 4-way restrictor. The restrictors are readily available, so the stick is the only hard part. Posting a wanted ad is probably your best choice.

There really is no substitute though.

I am very fond of my T-stik, once it has the RandyT mod done to it.
You get a very short throw, good restriction, and the mod Randy did lightens up the spring pressure.
This combo makes it exactly what I was looking for.

For those who haven't seen the mod RandyT did, he unscrewed the base, and inserted washers to hold the "lid" of the base up a bit.
That lightened the spring pressure, but didn't affect the short throw, or quick actuation.

For the record, I was never a huge fan of the Nintendo sticks to start with.
The balls felt too small, and I don't like the cloverleafed restrictors.

I'm not a fan either. I'm glad most sticks aren't like them.
