How hard do you think it would be to come up with something like this curious

It is certainly easy to kludge together a Raspberry Pi and make it act as a CoCo emulator, and folks have 3-D printer enclosures that look like CoCos, but without the real joysticks it’s not quite the same as sitting at a CoCo.

I think that would be key — a reproduction analog joystick (which could then go to USB in to the emulator like the RetroGames Mini devices do). That would be cool.
