            Using a pi to dump a ROM and then use that same pi to play the ROM? What is this wizardry?!

            If you read the documentation it will answer 99% of your questions: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/

            Also if you want a solution to your problems read this first: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

              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

                    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?

                            @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!
