The pinout is on the IFI website and can be found in THIS document. There is no hackage weirdage or packeting at work here. The joysticks are nothing more than a bunch of switches and potentiometers in a pretty plastic housing with a cord and a connector. Btw i *THINK* that the HAT switch is actually a bunch of switches and resistors hooked up to an axis.

btw you might want to find a diff gameport pinout bc a gameport has input for 4 buttons not 3.
