  • eBay:

    So far it’s $8.99 + 6.99 Shipping. There are others there, too.

    Here’s another:

    So far it’s $.99 with $7 shipping

  • well there are adapters, and technically a joystick is a serial adapter it is not classified as that as most serial adapters are 9 or 25 pin.

    but you need one of these, they will let you do what you want. Might be cheaper though to buy a new joystick.

  • Either an adapter piece, or a PCI card with the 15pin port that you need.
