I have this text about that... I've heard Amiga mouse is adaptable...
Anybody has info on MSX mouse pins?

Joystick        MSX std                 DE-09x-P-M

1  _FWD         I       Joystick pushed forward when high
2  _BACK        I       Backward
3  _LEFT        I       Left
4  _RIGHT       I       Right
5  +5V          O       50mA power supply
6  _TRG1        I/O     Trigger A / Output 1
7  _TRG2        I/O     Trigger B / Output 2
8  OUTPUT       O       Output 3
9  GND          -       Signal ground

Amiga Joystick port is added for reference below.

WARNING!
Pin 5 is +5V on MSX and Mouse Button 2 on Amiga. Since Amiga mouse button
is active low, connecting a Amiga mouse to a MSX and pressing button 2 will
shortcut the supply voltage.
