I'm not familiar with that game (would have to run it) but if it's as you say..a button for CW and another button for CCW movement..yes you can then use this device to use a rotary stick to do that no problem. This interface works great with XYbots too, and when you spin the rotary stick fast enough, it responds so fast it's like a spinner and I've used it for Forgotten Worlds (not the BEST choice) or with tron ( great!!!!) etc.
: I was thinking one thing...with Druin's interface it should be possible to play Eco-Fighters by Capcom as if it were a real rotational game, like, say, Forgotten Worlds. Its actual arcade controls always appalled me: you had to play it in exactly the same way as any MAME rotational game, i.e. by pressing one button for cw movement and by pressing another for ccw movement: a most depressing experience, you know...but if I understand correctly how Druin's device works, we should now be able to play this game with a rotary (not optical!) stick...in Capcom's teeth!!!
: Am I right?
