Completely flat joysticks?

[Horrible N00B]

I will be making a GCp in the form of an oversized DS. The problem is, I need a flat joystick like the 3DS has. I think I may need to use the 3DS pro circle pad mod or something to get a flat joystick. I need help. Somebody, please, advise how to use either the 3DS one, another one, or how to make one.

no offense, but your name suits you very well.

everything has a pinout.
start looking for pinouts for the things you need to wire
some people were even nice enough to make a picture version of the schematic as well

for this there are x and y signal pins, a 3.3v pin, and a GND pin. ground to the controller board.
