Sorry. Just getting back to the forum. The build is straight forward. Get a couple of tins and use a file for the USB C and a step bit for the shoulder buttons after drilling a pilot hole. Drill bits tend the miss shape the thin tin. Or use a file for those too. I have built 10 gameboy Zeros. The fi...

Here is a picture of my remote buttons with the last remaining kit button I could find.

The pads on the inside are left large to keep them from pulling out again. You can see how large I left the membrane from what missing in the remote and how small the standard button is.

Thanks! That’s was exactly what I needed.

What is the recommended method to update the image on the SD card?

Can we use the update function in the RetroPie menu or update/upgrade from prompt? Should we remove the SD card and write a completely new image?

I am running the first image and wanted to get the benefits of using the latest.

I had this exact issue. I ultimately lost one of my buttons. I ordered a new set from wermy but figure it would happen again. My fix: I have a dozen old tv remote controls around the house. I found one that had a few button the right size and color and cut down the membrane to fit and give them more...

Thanks!

Parts from Wermy and Helder arrived on the 13th. I was one of the first batch.

This is my first MintyPi build. Its nothing special, if fact it looks exactly like the one from the build video.

It took a little longer than expected but I now have a little something to travel with. Overall a very fun build.

Huge thanks to Wermy and Helder for making this kind of thing possible.

It took me a few tries to get the reflow right. I have done similar work before but this was a little more difficult for some reason. Use plenty of flux and add a touch of solder if needed. I had a white screen then it went black. I noticed when I turned my shop and bench lights off the screen had a...

New problem. It took a few tries to get it to take but it worked once. Well, 1/2 a time. I finally got a picture on the screen for the first time. I saw the RetroPi logo and about 1/2 a second of the minty Pi logo then the screen went dark. I waited a few minutes and nothing. I powered down and back...

Thanks!

I totally missed that. I haven’t been on Instagram in a few days. I had a feeling the problem was back there but I wanted to ask before I dissembled Helder’s magical assembly.
