Game Port

The game port is the traditional connection for video game input devices on an x86-based PCs. The game port is usually integrated with a PC sound card, either ISA or PCI. The game port has been replaced by the Universal Serial Bus, which allows for better plug-and-play support. Game ports use DB-15 connectors, and usually double as connectors for MIDI instruments. To use a game port with MIDI instruments, one had to obtain an unusual cable with both DB-15 and 5-pin DIN connectors (similar to old-style pre-PS/2 keyboard connectors known as Baby AT or AT 5 connectors).
