Back around 2000 we had numerous force feedback joysticks, mice and steering wheels on the market, but only the steering wheels survived due to having a niche with sim racing. Joystick disappeared largely due to games switching to gamepads. Not quite sure why nobody ever tried to replicate the Logitech iFeel mice, that seems like a simple and cheap enough feature add into any mouse, especially these days with phone rumble motors being available for pennies. I quite liked the way the Nintendo Wii would give little haptics clicks when you moved the cursor over clickable UI elements, I'd imagine iFeel was similar, never tried it myself back then.
