It was time to order a new joystick so I ordered it and picked it up at my local WM this evening, saved $15 on the best price I could find anywhere else by ordering it from Walmart.com and had free shipping to my store. I knew I could not feel the bottom base buttons (12 of them) because the raised dots are so small, and the depressions are so shallow, and because of nerve damage (Severe C-spine injury) they might as well be flat across the top, lol. I picked up a dozen of these little plastic bumper pads: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Soft-Touch-4215395N-1-2-Round-Clear-Heavy-Duty-Self-Stick-Bumpers-12-Piece-Set/16782103?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=0&adid=22222222227000000000&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=42423897272&wl4=pla-51320962143&wl5=9027234&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=8175035&wl11=online&wl12=16782103&veh=sem&gclid=Cj0KCQiAno_uBRC1ARIsAB496IXgn0gelETNySMMhY7tEg_Y_GgweaBt15_BJeORuypRdjMOjeik6FMaAs2lEALw_wcBand and stuck them on, they fit perfectly and look very nice atop the buttons on the base, and now I can find each button almost instantly by feel. I also bought a glue gun and sticks just in case they did not stick well, but thus far they stick great.
