If you have an extra Nintendo controller laying around why not put it to good use and make it into a mouse.
“If you are like me you get really excited when you find two Nintendo controllers at the Salvation Army. One was priced at $1.00 and the other at $.37 (i didn’t fight the pricing). Of course, they get home and meanwhile occupy a part of my brain that is like a broken stove. There is this back burner that is constantly on. Ideas get on there and just simmer away. So the idea for one of the controllers was to make it a card reader that i can plug my sd or compact flash cards into to transfer files. Sunday morning i came up with my idea for the second one… make it a mouse.”

Hi Chappy, you want to drive the mouse pointer around the screen? That would be quite cool! Quite possible but non trivial.
