Stick travel distance difference between NeoGeo CD Controller and NeoGeo Mini Controller?

[/neogeo]

TLDR at bottom
Background: I use an all-in-one HTPC Console, and I just added a NeoGeo library to it... however I refuse to play any game without the original style wireless controller (IE, if I play an n64 game, I use a Bluetooth n64 controller, if I play a Saturn Game, I use a bluetooth Saturn Controller, if I play a Turbografx 16 game, I use a 2.4ghz TurboGrafx controller, etc. etc. etc.) so it feels physically like what you’d expect while having the modern amenities of save-anywhere, antialiasing, HD and UHD upscaling, fast forward/rewind, shaders, etc. etc...
...unfortunately I don’t have a Bluetooth or Wireless NeoGeo CD controller, so I bought a brand new NeoGeo Mini Controller and harvested a Bluetooth chip from an 8bitdo controller that I wasn’t using, except the NeoGeo Mini controller literally has an analog style stick outputting a digital signal, wtf is the point of that? The throw is easily half an inch from center to fully extended in any direction and there’s no click.
So I’m going to put together a board below it, fashion a perpendicular cross on the shaft of the stick itself, and then place mini micro switches around the crossbars. So the question is:
[h=1]TLDR: How many millimeters should a NeoGeo CD directional stick travel until it fully depresses and “clicksâ€￾ the contact of a micro switch?[/h]
