@adamspc

Guess who bought a used PSP 1001? I actually might wait until the Zero is updated if that ever happens though. I'm getting lag even on some Nintendo games on that slow processor...(having fun with jailbreaking the PSP though - plays PS1 games great!)

Updated video here guys

@adamspc Wow. Just. Wow.

I am itching to buy this board!

@adamspc great work !
Would you be up for some collaboration ?

[adamspc]

@eddyman1us Maybe. What are you thinking?

[Danorak1981]

I wish I had the confidence/knowledge to do something like this, I think it's awesome!

[eddyman1us]

@adamspc I am an engineer who share's similar goals of reviving the heritage of video gaming in the age of handhelds and hdtv I would like to fund this. I also have contacts with Chinese factories which can provide better build at better costs, what would be the best email to connect at ?

@eddyman1us

What a wonderful pcb prototype project! Thank you!

[adamspc]

@markyh444 The final prototype arrived today. Doing some stress testing, then I'm putting 20 together as kits.

[markyh444]

@adamspc fantastic!

[Jeck11]

How much is a full kit targeted to cost?

[adamspc]

@Jeck11 $79 for the ready-to-go board with wires and adapters. The LCD is additional (around $15-20 if you modify one from eBay, or $29 if you want one pre-done)

@adamspc What is battery life like on this project?

[adamspc]

@HurricaneFan 2 hours at least. I've gotten 4 hours with audio switched off and running the battery all the way down.

[Jeck11]

So $110 and that'll covert everything? Nice man!

Well there's still the pi and case to be bought. So maybe $130.

@adamspc awesome job!! Great price. Any luck yet with the analog yet?

[adamspc]

@edmaul69 Yeah I got a basic version of the joystick working. It's all integrated. An improved joystick is planned for a few months from now, once I have time to work on the software.

The board has integrated:

• Battery Charging
• Battery Protection
• Efficient 5.2v Boosting
• Soft On/Off Control with Emergency Shutdown
• Audio Filter and Amplifier
• Low-Battery Warning
• Simple Joystick
