Sorry, I'm not going to help you much here, but I have never had any luck with joysticks/controllers for PC games.

Maybe I have just never bought the right one, but I always end up giving up with them and just using the keyboard.

So I'll be interested to hear which are the best, since I hate using the keyboard and miss playing games with a controller like on my trusty old SNES, god, showing my age!!!
Lot of joysticks here with reviews........

i dont know of anywhere specific, but you can get a converter for a c64 mastersystem megadrive amiga atari 520/1040 and quite a lot of others..
then just connect your favorite joystic from back in the day..

i had a konix speedking autofire!

and i was looking on ebay the other day and the converter and the joystick are both on there
search ebay for "9 pin" and it finds loads of adapters, i THINK these will work, although im not sure how you'd install the drivers

god, this brings back memories!
