Good; now try just nusb/joy [endpoint] (iirc):

; nusb/joy 8

This should print keys in plaintext when you push the buttons.  If all
buttons print keys and all directional pads print axis, then you
probably just need to remap the keys in /bin/joy, they are hardcoded
and different for every joystick I've tried.  Then try an emulator
which uses a bunch of the keys, or ideally a test rom (I have some
snes test rom here, it shows button/axis events).

Cheers,
