I designed a circuit to use a 49-way in place of a hall effect or analog stick, so if you can connector an analog stick to your PC, you can connect a 49-way, too. Here's the circuit.

: I don't know of anybody that's ever come up with an interface for that thing. I've asked on this board and others with no replies. It uses a grid of photocells to sort of emulate an analog response, so a mechanincal interface would be tricky, and MAME software support will be very unlikely as well. If anybody does come up with a solution, please post it - I'd love to know!
