I'm attempting to build my own joystick adapter to be able to use my classic Atari style DB9 connector joysticks on modern USB hardware and emulators. // Get your first PCBs free - PCBs at PCBWay https://www.pcbway.com/ (Sponsor)

Dr A of the Backoffice Show made a much more advanced "Ultimate Joystick Interface" board a while back that adds analog inputs and is fully scriptable, recommended if you want to make a fancier adapter: https://backofficeshow.com/shop/ultimate-joystick-interface
