Analogue stick without addon board

Something really important to take in consideration is your ability to solder small things, Vita/Switch/3DS require you to use a FPC connector, there are some board out there but these are a bit big.
PSP1000 sticks doesn't require a FPC connector so it is the easiest way to go, since you can directly solder wires on its back.

Aside of this, it is a bit difficult to recommend any stick, it mostly depend on you.
Personally, I prefer "pivot" type (Vita/Switch) but some persons prefer slider type (PSP/3DS), the best I can recommend you is to order one of each, these are pretty cheap in China (1$ to 3$ per pcs).

I will take Adafruit board as exemple:
- VDD need to be connected under the compute module on the pad +3V3
- GND to GND
- SCL to 45
- SDA to 44
- ADDR is a bit tricky, you can connect it to VDD,GND,SCL or SDA, I recommend GND.
- ALRT is not connected
- A0 to A3 are analog input

On stick side: https://www.adafruit.com/product/444 as a example
- VCC to +3V3
- Ground to GND
- Left/Right to A0
- Up/Down to A1

You can also "thekindofstick pinout" on Google Image, aside of the pinout thing, it can also provide you some additional visual on what peoples do (Sorry, English is not my main language and this part sound weird to me)
