This is an interesting project that uses an Arduino to interpret the 8bit value generated from the controller and adds a "fatigue value" to the output signal. Basically, the longer you play, the slower your character will move.
So, this is my analog version of a playful Playstation 2 controller for the PSX project -- the one that slows the analog part of the controller down over time so, you know..when I'm playing Katamari Damacy it's a bit more realistic that the Prince gets tired or during GTA, my guy actually gets tired from running away from liquor store heists and stuff.
Basically, I tap right into the PSX controller, putting a microcontroller in between the analog control joysticks and the little FPGA or whatever it is that senses the analog control joysticks. So, my microcontroller determines where the control sticks are and, depending on how long the game's been played, "dampens" the value, constraining its range.
