Re: Parts and Tool list if using Helder AIO PCB 2.0

Why does Wermy solder all 4 wires for the external USB port to the AIO board, but then run power to it from the Power Boost? EDIT: The reason I am asking is that I am annotating pictures of each of the components for my own notes. I am sure that this probably already exists somewhere, but I will act...

Re: Parts and Tool list if using Helder AIO PCB 2.0

Re: Tools Needed for Gameboy Zero

**DISCLAIMER**

I have not yet successfully constructed a GameBoy Zero.

I have, however posted part/tool/skill requirements to other forums.

I only did so after exhaustive readings of text instructions, and video reproductions.

Re: Parts and Tool list if using Helder AIO PCB 2.0

Absolutely! If it isn't obvious, I haven't attempted a build of this scale before. I am trying to be extremely analytical, and to make sure that I accurately document requirements for completion. I have budget and soldering skill limitations that I must consider. I am planning this build from A-Z to...

Re: Parts and Tool list if using Helder AIO PCB 2.0

Thank you for your reply kind sir. I was under the impression that scavenged USB cable would be sufficient. The videos gave an impression that the wires would be appropriately gauged if salvaged only from that resource. I most likely WILL use a heat gun and the heat shrink wrap because I do happen t...

Re: Original game carts on GBZ?

My kids asked me this when I was describing the project I am about to embark on. You would have to have some sort of translation layer or something that would dump the cartridge to a "ROM" to be loaded with the emulator. I don't think that this is IMPOSSIBLE, but would most likely be more trouble th...
