Re: I can't have a graceful shutdown...
Pin numbers are not really relevant, the important thing is to wire it like the image below. The colors can be switched and rotated, as long as the pins you use are staggered.

Re: What sort of cables do you use when wiring the Gameboy Zero up?

Re: [Gauging Interest] Buttons/Switches Kit
Yeah, $6 is only an estimate. I will determine a solid price if there is enough interest. I know I would personally pay $6 to have everything shipped in around a week instead of searching and waiting for 1-2 months for the parts to arrive from China.

[Gauging Interest] Buttons/Switches Kit
