The Great Search - DE-15 PC Game Port connector with Screwlock Standoffs
from Adafruit Industries · host Adafruit Industries
On this week's Great Search we're on the hunt for a super-retro component: a connector that will match up with PC Game port connectors like you had on your old 486dx with a Sound-Blaster 16. We're looking for something through-hole, right-angle, with 2 rows of sockets. We also want the li'l 4-40 hex standoffs that are used to secure the joystick to the connector. Let's see whether we can find it in stock on Digi-Key!
