Of course, you can build adapters for the digital sticks, too--but
they will still be digital (centered, half-scale up, half scale up
and right, etc.).  It's a little more complicated than adapters for
PC sticks, since that just means adding a couple of capacitors.

It's easy if the stick uses microswitches with three contacts (normally open/normally closed/common) and you can rewire it internally. Just put the two vertical switches in serial, with a resistor parallel to each of them. One switch is connected in "normally open" mode, one in "normally closed" mode. Same for the two horizontal switches.

For example the "Competition Pro" models allow this modification IIRC.
