Constant use is grounds for wear and tear, and that's no exception even for the multi-capable Sony PlayStation Portable. Homebrew developer Johnny McKinney released a homebrew application to diagnose the PSP's controls. Test My Controls version 1.5 - perhaps a C++ rehash of Control Tester v1.0 - allows the user to test the analog stick's response and detection range to gauge the analog control's operational condition.
How does it work? Well, if you've handled joysticks or gamepads in Windows before, Test My Controls v1.5 would be something similar to the gamepad properties' Diagnostics utility. There's a certain threshold your control will accept at both sides of axes X and Y, and if you're pretty close (say 2 integers) to the 127 integer range for both the negative and postive ranges for both axes, your analog control is accurate enough for operation.
But if it hits a certain high, like the developer's suggested threshold of 140, you could be looking at a serious need to replace the analog control - if not attempt to repair the analog control interface yourself. Don't be alarmed by the progressive scan symptoms you'd occasionally catch the program in - its all face value until that little code gremlin's been swatted down.
