Looking good!

whats the story with these SPI screens ive heard so much about?


any links for more info?

looks great, well done.

I second veterans suggestion. That battery fits like a glove. Also, for your first gameboy, it's coming along real nice. You got some clean cuts there. My first one looked horrible haha keep it up thanks man, yeah i really enjoyed building it. i think I'm going to leave this one pretty much how it ...

he he he, yes i have found this out, i get about 60 minutes of game time with a full charge.

I didn't relies how small the battery actually was when i bought it.

Can someone make a recommendation?

you would be correct, the cable coming out the bottom was for power, though I have now included a small battery and controller board to the build. https://scontent.fakl5-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t31.0-8/24297529_10155404247233495_6368449120985500838_o.jpg?oh=3fc0b434e7f67ae8c63945e1bb061015&oe=5A8B4180 htt...

HI team, I'm reasonably new to all this but over the last few months I have been picking up parts and putting together my first GBZ. I've watched so many videos and read many threads on here, which have all been very helpful so thanks to everyone. I havnt done anything too out of the box, but as you...

Hi team, Sorry if this is a stupid question, but can i power my RPi Zero by jamming 5v into the 5v GPIO pin (pin 2 for example), or do i have to power it via the Micro usb port? https://scontent-syd2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/23794963_10155387334718495_1611193247640888992_n.jpg?oh=9727ed0573813234c1cb...

thanks for the help team, Got it all together, using a Rpi 3 which isnt the best as theres not much room, Ive ordered a rpi zero from over seas which should arrive in a few weeks. Also i struggled with wiring the Teency directly to the rpi, so ive left it using a USB cable for now, hence the random ...

so your saying use the pads instead of the pins?
those seem to correlate with what i have as a pad layout.

thanks!

Still after some help with making the screen fire up on 5v though if anyone has any ideas?

HI team, I finally picked up one of these screens for my project, but i cant seem to get any life out of it... can someone point me to where i need to stick my 5v? https://scontent-syd2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/23318971_10155350158188495_7597682301534790454_n.jpg?oh=a7a347139276c7c93aaf7aedd59bc843&o...
