Apple II Joystick Adapter
This small board lets you plug a 16-pin joystick into the external 9-pin joystick port on the Apple IIe. Although the Apple IIe has an internal 16-pin joystick port, I found that the connector on my joystick was too big to fit through any of the holes on the back of the IIe. So, I created this adapter to let me plug it in externally.
This adapter could also be useful for the Apple IIc, which does not have a 16-pin joystick port at all, although I have not tested it on a IIc.
Bill of Materials
I found it necessary to remove the hex screws from the DE-9 connector, because they prevented it from mating with the connector on the Apple IIe.
