Question Joystick DB9 > USB Converter - seeking recommendations

Hello
I have ZipStick and Quickshot joysticks which work a treat on my real A1200 however i do not have a DB9> USB converter to enable me to use it on my PC/WinUAE. I have to use a modern controller which I am not a fan of. Any recommendations on solutions out there in the market to enable me to use the old joysticks in WinUAE..

Hello
Further to this, I have an old Saitek Arcade joystick for PC with a Joyport (DB15) plug I would like to use for Amiga games. If someone could recommend a Joyport(DB15)-To-USB adapter also, I would appreciate it.

There are a few Arduino based projects to convert Amiga joysticks (and keyboards) into modern USB HID devices. I did one to attach an A1000 keyboard to my laptop, using a Teensy 2.0.

I recently purchased the C64 Maxi and it comes with "The C64 Joystick" which is a USB version of the classic Speedlink joystick I used to love as a kid! it feels really good.
