Most electronics stores sell them. Jameco have them here (http://jameco.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10001&catalogId=10001&productId=15051), but Radioshack should also have them.

sorry, I should have called this post does anyone know where I can get this metal plate surrounding this connector. At first I thought they were made as one piece.

just to point something out, the x-arcade uses a 9-pin serial cable for its connections

unless you are doing something completely different

well that pic is from one of  www.byrdo.org 's joysticks any idea what he is doing with db15 connector? I just assumed it was a x arcade. Im trying to decide what the best way to build a joystick for multiple consoles and the xarcade seemed like the way to go. I thought he was doing the same.
