Hi orange,
The best joystick ever made for the Amiga and Atari ST computers was the Wico Bat Handle or Wico Red Ball joysticks. These used leaf-switches which are better then micro switches. A micro switch joystick would last me about 3 to 6 months, then they would fail or break. The Wico joysticks lasted 5 to 10 YEARS of heavy use and I never had any problems with them. In many of the gaming championships that I have won through the years I used a Wico joystick to kick butt. In fact, a Wico joystick with a autoblaster plugged in can not be beat. I still use them today. You can find them on eBay. :-D
