Would Anybody Object If I Require A Joystick?

I am making a 3D game and I was thinking it might be easiest if I designed it to require an analog control joystick or gamepad.  Does anybody here not have a joystick of some kind?

Also, I might as well tell about my current progress.  I have a nice start to my 3d engine with loading .OBJ meshes and textures and correctly rendering them.  This is going smoother than I thought it would.

   I don’t have one. That’s not to say you shouldn’t do it, but it might be nice to have some basic keyboard movements work, too.

   I don’t mind as I have dug up a joypad for potential use with my game but imho you should really make it playable with the keyboard as some people are not going to bother with the joystick/joypad thing.

   But I’m too lazy to have BOTH joystick AND keyboard!
