I had a similar microsoft joystick (possibly the same one) and it was a 15 pin gameport (but didn't have all 15 pinned out).
Physically yes it's a gameport, but it's missing pins in several locations bringing the total to 9. Is this the standard Microsoft pinout?

I'd take a picture but CD won't let me upload for some reason.
