It's like new. I guess I'll have to start playing games now, does Solitaire support joysticks?

You should give MS Flight Sim 2000 a go with it. Total upgrade to the game, for 14 year old me.
Just be careful, it's a slippery slope. Before you know it you'll be taking a second mortage for HOTAS, instrument panels and DCS planes. I guess in a way I can thank this specific stick for financially ruining me... On second thought maybe just return it to the store.
Ah I did pick up a Flight Simulator X box on a previous thrift run, maybe I can try installing it on my Value Village HP Core I5 I picked up a few weeks ago.
I won't be going full sim, but I did recently acquire a virpil set... Kind of sad that there's no step in between the x-52/t-1600 and enthusiast gear, but honestly no regrets. Warbrd base with Cosmo cams is DELIGHTFUL.
I've hear only good things about virpil, they seem great. I have older VKB but it's trucking. YUP no regrets. Much cheaper than maintaining a plane, lot easier and convenient to sim haha
