I have this specific board, but I don't know if it can act like a HID joystick. A relatively cheap option is the Teensy boards, which are easily programmed using Arduino and can show up as a joystick without much effort.
you have to write a special software, or the comupter just sees the inputs?
and i am pretty sure it can act like an HID, we have it because it was used for a simmilar purpose.
and thanks for the help!
