Or in AmiBlitz:

Initializing

Poke.b $BFD200, %11111111
Poke.b $BFE301, %00000000

Set port to query

Poke.b $BFD000, %00000000 ; Port 1
Poke.b $BFD000, %00000001
Poke.b $BFD000, %00000010
Poke.b $BFD000, %00000011
Poke.b $BFD000, %00000100
Poke.b $BFD000, %00000101
Poke.b $BFD000, %00000110
Poke.b $BFD000, %00000111 ; Port 8

Direction of the joystick

Result.b = 0
Result = NOT Peek.b($BFE101)

Check if button is pushed

Result.b = NOT Peek.b($BFE101) | %00001111
