I assume the game-link connector isn't exactly standard so I was curious as to if these are able to be had in the wild (other than by stealing it from a GameBoy) or if people are just cutting the game-link cables?
I was originally going to just cut the cable and just tie it up inside whatever case I end up using. But now I am thinking using a DB9 connector would be nice instead, assuming of course I can't get my hands on a jack.
Any thoughts on that? For the curious, my current (work in progress) board layout is:

I used a blank "shield" and went from there. I am debating on making a whole board instead, perhaps using dimensions of some standard cases, but I kinda wanted to get something up and running first. I did have to extend the board out a bit, meaning whatever case I use will look a bit funky since the connections on either side won't be even with each other.
I guess as an aside, are there any GB stores that have kits or finished ArduinoBoy's for sale? Otherwise I'm going to have to wait a month for BatchPCB to print my (untested) design
