The article below is NOT CoCo specific, but it talks about how to make an Arduino Leonardo appear as a USB joystick to a Windows PC. Once you have that, it should be relatively simple to wire a CoCo joystick to the Arduino analog inputs and read it and then pass that information through to the PC. I have been meaning to do this but I haven’t gotten around to it yet. It should work with MAME or any other emulator or software that supports PC USB joysticks.
