A great featherwing with both analog thumbjoystick and 4-6 buttons, depending on how you count. There are the classic "+" formation with X, Y, A and B, then there is a "select" and a "reset" button as well. All controls very easy to read with Adafruits seesaw-library and communication over I2C spares a lot of pins. One star from perfect: The buttons are very low compared to the thumbjoystick, which mames it difficult to mount in any kind of box.

Very simple board for making user interfaces. Works well with its helper micro and you just talk to it over i2c. Library and examples are supplied by Adafruit. I had hoped the wee joystick had a centre button but it doesn't - just the four directions. Otherwise exactly as expected.
