Why would you want to cover your joystick ports? Because on the Commodore computers those pins are connected directly to the CIA chips on the motherboard. Should you accidently touch the pins and there's a static discharge you will likely freeze up the computer and possibly damage the CIA chip.
Same as Wikallen's design but just made slightly bigger for a tighter fit without needing to add any padding. printed in PLA on an Ender 3.
