I have not yet been able to play these games with a joystick.

However this does not mean that it is impossible- play around with the emulators and you might be able to get it to work.

The second emulator should also work with most of the games.

However I found EMU13 easier to use and it allowed me to play all the games, with many of them loading instantly.
