Is there an adapter I can buy to connect a MSX joystick to PC gameport? Unless someone knows how to get a USB joystick to work in MS-DOS.

There is a schematic of how to connect a Mega Drive joypad on parallel port:

Those adapters exist, but I have no idea if they are still for sale somewhere.
I have one from Suzo, who also made those great Arcade joysticks, but it's very old and doesn't seem to work very well either.

Thanks, but that's for the parallel port. I need to plug into a PC gameport which has DB15 connector.
