Oh this is brilliant! I am so here for this and thrilled to see updates!

I hope you do continue this project in spite of the situations, it's always a shame to lose a little bit of spark from the world!

This is outstanding! See now I've got a little voice in the back of my head saying "we should minify this" ;)

The Wii U gamepad is great for stuffing things inside! I've done everything from a PS2 to a Raspberry Pi, and even a Pi Zero - it fits the 6.5" HDMI screen with a tiny amount of trimming, and usually has enough room to do everything you want, but a 3D printer may help you out. Good luck and I'm...

This has made my whole week! It's a masterclass in design and a thing of beauty!

Frankencasing is a lost art! I love it!!

I should add that it doesn't have to be perfect to be "finished" - hell I broke my screen hours before the competition closed and so I entered a "this was great until 5 minutes ago" video entry! lol

While the flat lady may be getting warmed up she's not on stage and singing yet! Have a sleep, have a think, see if you can fight through the Autodesk BS! I believe in you!

People can read my logs and find out all the ways not to do something because it seems I killed and inordinate number of consoles ;) EDIT: Oh, and fantastic things to do with a Wii U gamepad!

I'll note that I hit a lot of stuff like this, even when buying the same screen (previously known good) from the same manufacturer. What I did as a last-ditch resort was used a s-video to HDMI adapter that magically worked like a charm, and didn't show a noticeable quality difference when I...

I agree totally! Frankencasing is a lost art now and it's very dear to my heart as it's something I spent the better part of a decade doing!

When I last brought one of the 8" Eyoyo screens it advertised has having yPbPr support and turned out that it didn't. I was very dissapointed and ended up using a s-video to VGA adapter just to get the project finished. I did spend ages looking into programming the RTD2660H chip myself, but was...

I've been trying to think of something to add here as I've screwed around with the N64 a lot. There are a couple of troubleshooting steps I could suggest that might help :) To see if the system has booted have a look at chatter on the PIF chip, Pin 2 or 5 (I can't remember sorry, and my notes...

I came here from Modretro and Assembler too. Such a shame to lose all that knowledge when the sites closed down!
