2 years ago Hi there-
You can see the pins used for the game port on my website: http://schmenk.is-a-geek.com/wordpress/?p=239
Follow the links to for the game port diagram to make sure you connect the correct pins.
I’m not sure where you found the picture from 2020, but it looks like they used a breadboard to build a temporary setup. It may have made it easier to debug, as well.
You will need to get floppy images onto real floppy disks in order to run the PLASMA programs on the Apple II: https://github.com/dschmenk/PLASMA/tree/master/images/apple https://github.com/dschmenk/PLASMA/tree/master/images/apple
Good luck

Why on the photo of april 2020 there are 2 rows of the plate ribbon that go to the apple game port. Moreover you use (GND and 5V arduino). Are they okay on 1 and 8 of the game port? Can you enlighten me. For the rest I am under unbuntu 16.04 lts and I am having fun with raspi and arduino. I managed to install and compile the examples with PLASMA. Also I expect a lot from your help. Thanks in advance Regards
