Recalbox Rasberry pi 3 and Analog joystick

[creaturefactory]

Anyone know of a good tutorial to add Analog joysticks and small 16 mm and 12 mm buttons pretty much like a StreetFighter ll cabinet. I would also like to add a 5 inch hdmi powered screen for it as well. I've searched and it either requires Arduino or some odd set up and needs a breadboard. I'm looking for a cleaner soloution and more plug and play.

Close but I'm looking for help with having Analog joystick, or like this. Some way of getting this joy stick to interact with the Rasbery pii 3.

@creaturefactory : you can use an analog PS2 joystick (see bangoog or aliexpress) and convert them to digital one to wire the controls on GPIO thnaks to an LM339 chip :

here is the schematic :

and the result :

this helped me to build a small cabinet with a 3.2" tft screen :

@ian57

Can't I use this and have it wired up to the Rasberry pi 3 and have GPIO wires connected to the GPIO of the pi3?

@creaturefactory Yes I think so. It is the same type of joystick... only bigger ;)
