BadBert, new here

Post by BadBert » Wed Jun 29, 2016 5:19 am

Hi Guys!

i am used to introducing myself on a forum where i am new... so i thought i would also do that here :D

I am BadBert (not my real name, duh).
I live in Hoogerheide, a small village next to Bergen op Zoom (pretty well known city) in The Netherlands.

I am now 33 years old.

I have a couple of hobbies...
The first is driving and working on my classic mini cooper (mpi, 1997).
I also have a Opel (Vauxhall) Astra TwinTop, and in that me, my wife and my (now) 5y/o son have a lot of fun with the roof off :D

Also, i have been active in the RC scene for quite some time now. I have some RC cars that i modded. Latest one is my m05 tamiya mini cooper (clone of the real one) where i added a fully functioning LED set, made light buckets myself etc.
I also have some "drones" and fly FPV

I an a long time Nintendo fan, still own a original NES system, original GameBoy (blue one, perfect state), wiiU and some new 3ds-s.
I even have a tattoo on my shoulder that a friend of mine drew in hounor of the birth of my son, with baby mario on it :P

I am now in the process of gathering all info i need to build myself a GameBoyZero. I also want to build one as a birthday gift for my little brother, who also is a big nintendo fan!

ok guys... that's me!

Any questions, just ask!
My first GBZ build -=HERE=- -> Became a gift to my little brother!

Welcome! Glad you've found us. :)

Good lock with your GBZ build! You may want to make two -- you may have a hard time handing it over to your brother. ;)

Welcome to the forum!

Pro tip: figure out how to build the first one before touching the second one. Then you'll know all the hassles to avoid and tricks to use. Plus, in general it'll look better thanks to experience.

Good luck!
