So I'm very large and strong, I think I may be the cause of this. But does anyone know of a strong replacement? I'm capable of installing it myself, but my cursory Google search turned up nil for "strong game sticks"(let the jokes flow)

Just curious if I'm stuck playing d-pad game.

If your really want to go for it, you can order metal 3D prints from jlcpcb. They might require some post processing/polishing for this particular use.

You mentioned in another comment that you ordered some replacements from AliExpress. Those might last even less than the original ones. I would recommend take a look at GuliKit for good quality replacements.
