Joystick




<hardware, games> A device consisting of a hand held stick that pivots about one end and transmits its angle in two dimensions to a computer.

Joysticks are often used to control games, and usually have one or more push-buttons whose state can also be read by the computer.

Most I/O interface cards for IBM PCs have a joystick (game control) port.
