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.
