Description of Issue

Hi, I'm very new to Arduino development. When uploading the JoystickTest exampleto my board, I get this error:

The Joystick library can only be used with a USB MCU (e.g. Arduino Leonardo, Arduino Micro, etc.).

It seems like the library does only support Arduino Leonardo or Micro. Is there a way/workaround to get it to run on a Mega 2560 or is there no way around buying a new board?

Thank you!

That is correct. This library is only supported on the cards listed in the wiki: https://github.com/MHeironimus/ArduinoJoystickLibrary/wiki/Supported-Boards
