Need help with 2016 1Up Chinese Gameboy Pi3 Kit

[BRuZeR]

I bought two kits and the instructions are useless. I tried to follow them the best I could but it doesn't seem to work. I have two Kits. One is untouched and the other I have given a go at building but with not much luck. the instructions are in Chinese and the Translation don't seem very descriptive.

I need someone to help me get these working.

looks fun! have no idea what the Chinese is though. I have a friend who could help but I have no idea when I'll see her next

Download Microsoft translator app on your mobile phone and have it translate from Chinese by taking a picture. It works well enough to make out what it is saying.

Well I bought it from some guy in France that managed to buy 3. he couldnt finish his so sold me the other two. I have had no luck contacting the original creator, hes very bad at responding to people.

I have the app and have translated it but its still no easy task. I have followed the instructions but it wont power up. I will post pictures of what I have done so far later tonight.

Ahh i see! Best bet is translator then.

Id say you could probably run retro-pie on it too as opposed to Recalbox which might save some translation.

As for putting it together, this inst quote the same build / model but its from his YouTube page so may help?

Oh gosh I just saw this post and I actually have been keeping in touch with the guy answering every single question and to make this short mine came assembled already and mine came with a HD screen so I guess I got lucky but I did asked him what screen he used and He showed me how complicated it was to modify the controller board to make it all fit.

This is the screen that he used on my build meaning on my future projects i will be using these screens but modifying the screen controller board is no joke sadly.
