Reading real gameboy cartridges on Pi
-
The amount of want I have for this is ridiculous! do you have plans to sell these?
-
I do. What was just going to be a feature of my pi-in-a-gameboy-shell build has morphed into a standalone project that just gets lots of love wherever I show it. So yeah. It's mostly open source but I'll make units for people to buy.
-
@ABrugsch Awesome, please keep us updated!!
-
I'll be updating here, sudomod, /r/Gameboy (and other subreddits) , facebook gameboy collectors group... All over the place really. Though my main log has been in sudomod so far
-
@ABrugsch this is pretty cool.
-
Using a pi to dump a ROM and then use that same pi to play the ROM? What is this wizardry?!
-
I know right.
If I get the FUSE layer working, you won't have to even 'dump' the rom first, the emulaor can just read the rom as if it's a file -
Hey @moosepr in the house!
-
@ABrugsch they will let anyone in here 😛
-
Awesome project! I love that you have LEDs on all the lines as well, people don't put enough pointlessly flashy LEDs on things anymore :( haha
-
@smartroad that's mainly for debugging. I'm not hand soldering 27 pairs of 0805 led's and resistors again unless absolutely necessary ;)
Any "production" boards won't have them all. (a few maybe ;) ) -
@herb_fargus i think I've put this in the wrong section... Should probably be in projects perhaps?
-
@ABrugsch NO!!!! Flashy is good :D
-
@smartroad agreed! But the lowest 8 bits of the address don't even flash... Just a blur like PWM dimming ;) and I haven't even sped it up to the max throughput yet!
