This adapter allows joysticks with a Gameport to be connected to a computer via USB. This means, for example, that good old joysticks from the DOS era can be used on a modern computer with USB ports.
The adapter already supports several drivers for various analogue and digital joysticks, and there are plans to add support for further devices.
