OK got it. From a quick look at the board, it doesn't look like the DE0-NANO has a user controllable USB port. It is only used for programming. Please note that this will be significantly easier to do with a microcontroller that has a purpose built USB device or OTG interface. Several Arduino's and TI launchpad boards would work. If you need FPGA as well, consider using the USB that is connected to the HPS in the SoC chips. A board like the DE0-SoC would work for this.
