Connect a Wii Nunchuck (or cheap clone) to your Arduino
See Youtube video https://youtu.be/sA74PdujjQI
JLCPCB Only $2 for PCB Prototype any colour https://jlcpcb.com/
Special offer on assembly (see video for details)
Using a standard (or clone) Wii Nunchuck for Arduino projects is straightforward and you have the standard joystick control, plus two buttons and an accelerometer too! So you can use something that is easy to hold far better than the traditional mini-joystick modules.
(Special thanks to Michael Kurt Vogel for compiling this)

NB: I don't recommend powering the Nunchuck from the Arduino 5v pins, use the 3v3 pin and GND instead.
