Sorry if this is the dumbest/lamest question, but if I use a 8-way joystick do I need to map eight keys or only 4 and when moving diagonal it generates two signals?

Another question. I've seen people using KE24 encoder from Hagstrom, which allows matrix and individual mapping. Any recommendations on which method to use? I don't feel comfortable building a matrix, since my electronics knowledge is poor.
