The ASCII Stick α or ASCII Stick Alpha is a joystick manufactured by ASCII for the Sega Master System. It is a fairly standard joystick with turbo features, though also allows the user to set the rate at which the turbos fire. It was only released in Japan.

ASCII re-used this basic design a number of times during the 80s, with different colour schemes and names for different consoles. For example, it is called the "ASCII Stick Engine" for the NEC PC Engine, "ASCII Stick X Turbo" for the MSX and "ASCII Stick Turbo Jr." for the Nintendo Famicom.
