While at home I found an old gamepad I used as a kid. It connects via gameport. As of Windows Vista, gameport is no longer supported so I would like to "port" it to USB. With the use of an Atmel Mega8 (and most likely others) it is possible to create a USB HID device. This link describes a schematic and code of how to create a USB HID device.
Upon viewing this site using a board called a Teensy (which is basically an Arduino with a USB stack rather than operating over RS232) it would be alot easier to implement a solution using this.
This project is using the same hardware as the first but the code (and number of inputs) is closer to what I would like to implement.
