6My life used to be so aimless... but now I've managed to sync a servo motor with the aiming mechanism in Puzzle Bobble/Bust-A-Move!
The positioning data is coming from the game itself (running in MAME) in real time and not from the controller (see the "attract mode" footage above).

An Arduino UNO is reading the serial data to position the servo in close to real time.
Update! Here's the finished cardboard version:
