This reminds me vaguely of the Sega Dreamcast controllers.

If I remember correctly, there is a hardware and software difference between pushing up on the joystick. Edit: Or rather some games depended on some analog noise(?) that is now filtered out by modern interfaces.

It doesn’t represent `{ x: 0, y: 1 }’, but I can’t remember if that was the case because of the physical joystick, which was then remapped in software, or some other case, though I assume that’s why.[1][2]
