There's already a joystick interface that I made one day and documented here:
http://bitchin100.com/wiki/index.php?title=Joystick_adapter

I don't think there are any programs that would use it but it's a dead-simple 
adapter and works nicely. As for mouse, if the serial ports gives enough 
milliamps out then any old serial mouse would work out of the box, it's just a 
matter of turning a few pins high for power (RS-232 doesn't have power pins so 
serial mice "cheat" by stealing power from unused control pins) and then 
reading the incoming mouse data.

Offtopic to this discussion... but I'm finally moving to a big enough apartment 
so I can get my toys out of the boxes and into use \o/
