How to Modify Joysticks

Joysticks are generally used with computers to provide PC game players with a similar experience to arcade or console games. Generally, these joysticks would connect to a computer through a specialized serial port known as a "game port." However, if you wish to modify your joystick and update it to make use of a computer's USB port, you can do so easily.
