how about a molex connector? You could always label it as well, so you don't do that screwup you mentioned

Well as far as the gameboy link cable idea, you could get a male and a female end from one of those Gameboy Advance multitap things.

Like the one here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00005 ... e&n=468642

Check your local GameStop or EB for that cable. I got one in the used GameBoy accessories pile for a buck a little while back.

You could use one of those headphone-video jacks, like in the PSOne screen

Mini-DIN, DIN and microphone cables come to mind for not-so-standard but easy-to-find connectors.

Molex is nice. Milli-Connects are my favorites.

Maybe use a keyboard/mouse connector from an old keyboard/mouse and rip one out of an old PC for the console side. Total cost: FREE.

Alternative total cost: I'll ship you that junk for $1.50.

Use wood and carve out a connector and then drill holes for the pins

Use some heavy duty wire for the pins (you know, that industrial stuff that is just barely bendable)
