Re: Pico-8 on a GBZ

Got the GBZ controls to work. When I installed Pico-8 on my Gameboy Zero, it didn't install the hidden folder with the config file, or the controller setup file. Whoops! I ended up installing the Linux version and copying that folder. After setting up the controller file and tweaking config.txt, it ...

You can purchase a liscense for the low cost of $14.99 at https://www.lexaloffle.com/pico-8.php#getpico8 They'll email you ...

Re: GBZ (and DMG-01) display stand

That's so awesome! I was wondering if a slight modification might be made... a notch in the center, to accommodate a headphone plug. For practical applications. I'd like to keep something like this at work in my locker, then use the GBZ in a stand so I can watch kodi on lunch breaks without holding ...

Re: My SAIO won't boot

That is, really strange! Was something plugged in to USB when it was dropped? Did it fall apart when dropped? I have a tiny 64gb usb that I keep plugged in there. Nothing cracked or broke open when it dropped. I couldn't find the cause of the problem with a visual inspection. And while I have a dig...

[Solved] My SAIO won't boot

I made a terrible mistake. I handed my gameboy zero to a three year old. She was running with it, tripped, and it went flying. Of course it was on at the time. If I flip the power switch, nothing happens. However, if a USB is plugged in to the port, it starts to turn on. Unfortunately, it doesn't ge...

Re: [ORDERS OPEN] Custom GBZ lipo battery pack

Battery came in today, thank you! Shipping was much quicker this time. I received it in just under 3 weeks (I live in the US) BTW, I'd send a message to the company regarding the shipping labels. The entire left side of the label was truncated and the postal service was able to figure out where I l...

Re: [ORDERS OPEN] Custom GBZ lipo battery pack

Just now, my cell phone died while I was coming home from work! Lucky for me, I had my SAIO GBZ with a Dextech battery in my backpack! I plugged a USB cable from my phone in to the GBZ. While not ideal, and certainly not fast, it charged! So there's another bonus for a huge battery. I wouldn't recom...

Re: [ORDERS OPEN] Custom GBZ lipo battery pack

I was in the first batch of batteries. If I'm remembering correctly, it took a little over six months to get them.
