hope this helps... 

I have the //e technical reference [and an apple 2, 2+, and 2c, but no

From apple //e technical reference manual (combined from about 4 pages 
all of which got VERY well used when I used to connect apples together 
using game port for fun and games (that I wrote))


	9	8	GND
PDL1	10	7	PDL2
PDL3	11	6	PDL0
AN3	12	5	STB
AN2	13	4	SW2
AN1	14	3	SW1/CAPL (OPTION)
AN0	15	2	SW0/OAPL
	16	1	+5C



1  +5C  +5 volts (not to exceed 100mA
2  PB0  (button 0 or switch 0)  (read $c061)
3  PB1  (read $c062)
4  PB2  (read $c063)
5  STROBE'  also 'Analog input reset'  Strobe output.  line goes low 
        during 0O of a read or write instruction to $c040
6  PDL0  (read $c064)  goes low after read or write to $c040 until capacitors
	recharge (connect +5v to PDLn with resistance.  amount of resistance
	determines how long til $c064 goes high
7  PDL2
8  GND  system ground
9  n.c.  not connected
10  PDL1
11  PDL3
12  AN3  Annunciators.  These are standard 74LS TTL outputs and must be
	buffered to drive other than TTL inputs  (on = rw $c05f, off $c05e)
13  AN2  (on $c05d, off $c05c
14  AN1  ($c05b, $c05a)
15  AN0  ($c059, $c058)
15  n.c.

Be aware that Apple made some slight changes to the 16-pin gameport on the
Apple IIgs.

A fourth push button switch was added (SW3 or PB3) at pin 9
And the STROBE' output signal at pin 5 was replaced with a +5-volt pull-up
