First of all, sorry but I don't speak German at all.
I found this forum by searching for the joystick in the subject.

I found such a joystick in my attic while cleaning up. It seems to be in good condition, and I was wondering if it was still good for anything. I suspect it was used for Atari or Spectrum machines way back when, but I don't have any such machine around today (nor did I ever).
Any idea if it can still be used? It seems to have a serial connector (9 pin). I suspect I could try something in Linux by treating it a serial joystick but I could use any suggestions.
