Right, but I don't even know where to get the old-style analog
joystick that could be wired this way---everything that's easily
available is USB and requires a host mode. For better or for worse,
full blown Linux makes it the easiest to use them,  because the USB
stack is already up and running, automagically producing the joystick
data stream. Without it, i.e. when using a small microcontroller with
USB host mode,  the software for this project would be dominated by
the USB handling code.
