Hey Hackers! I have a limited amount of free hardware for developers who are interested in hacking around with a classic analog joystick! If you are interested in getting this thing working with Arduino, some old school CPU, or hacking into a retro PC, I'll send you some free hardware as long as you post the info as a hackaday.io project! one example of a project would be to get this joystick working with the arduino library project documented here: https://www.instructables.com/id/Arduino-LeonardoMicro-as-Game-ControllerJoystick/
