When activated you are able to setup within retropie to be the analogue stick inputs which is useful when playing N64 games.
Do you think this is possible on the Freeplay GBA's and are you able to implement in a future software update?
That's interesting. I have to assume that he's doing that inside of the code that runs on the Teensy. In theory, something like this could be done within the button driver code (https://github.com/TheFlav/mk_arcade_joystick_rpi).
Can you link to some more info on how Kite's works?
His GitHub is in the link below

I believe it will be using Teensy as it uses Arduino code for the buttons and the circuit sword is recognised by computers when linked by USB. His Arduino code is available to download if you would like to view it.
Basically when in the gamepad setup within emulation station you press the button combo to change between button and hat input and configure the dpad as the left stick. Then press the button combo to return to normal input mode and complete the rest of the setup. When you want to use the analogue controls (ie for N64 games) you activate the button combo then the dpad acts as the joystick.
