I currently know of two (maybe three) PC game devices that plug into the serial
port and thus can be supported by any SGI app... There is also at least one
box that allows you convert game controller interface to serial.

** Logitech WingMan Warrior - good PC joystick with a wheel to spin with your
left hand.

http://www.uvision.com/prdct/066/42.html - links to by $50-$100

** Thrustmaster - I think one of their joysticks connects to the serial port...
If anyone can tell me which one I'd appreciate it.

** SpaceOrb 360 - a game version of a 3D controller like a Spaceball. Held
much differently, but the same ideas apply...

http://www.spaceorb.com/ - company page - with link to buy for $80

** Unwinder - convert any game controller joystick (the other 95%) to serial

http://this.is/tpg/products/unwinder/ - $200
