oldschool joysticks

Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Beginners Area/oldschool joysticks

I am wondering if anyone knows where to get a joystick that is more similar to the old atari 2600 joysticks? By that I mean, not so huge as the sticks they have nowadays. The throw is too long. Also the base is so huge you can't really hold them in your hand/lap, so you have less control.

Also, I don't really like joypads - i never understood controlling with your thumb, which is a clumsy digit.
Even worse, your *left* thumb. Aren't most of us righties?

You young whipper-snappers probably don't know what I'm talking about, but you old-timers might!

Any idea where I can look? I tried amazon and they had very few with pictures, and those were all wrong.
