Wow, thank you so much for sharing this trim info!! Your work on the Saturn is incredible.

I remember reading about eDP issues in the Damn Linux Tablet worklog on Hackaday. Do you know how many lanes your panel uses? The guy building DLT had issues with the driver not decreasing the number of eDP lanes despite querying the panel for its lane width. You may have already explored...

What a beautiful and compact portable! I especially like the modern MIPI panel and the transplanted RGB to HDMI circuitry. Incredible that it's only a little bigger than a Vita.

Thank you! Yes, the ABXY and D-pad are full-size replacement GC buttons. They're extra tall so that they're flush with the Switch sticks. That way the portable can sit facedown without wobbling, and my thumb doesn't collide with the top of the C-stick during gameplay. It's extremely comfortable...

Wii U has been on my back burner since last year, mostly because of the annoying disc drive board requirement and my Dreamcast and SNES projects taking priority. I did design a Wii U regulator board that uses the stock 15V Wii U power brick and generates all the necessary voltages, but I never...

It's been awesome seeing this come together on Discord over the past few months! Congrats on the finished build (especially that sexy full nand relocation)

Thanks! The copper sheet is from OnlineMetals.com

This is awesome! I love the color scheme, it looks much more elegant than the original white and green. Do you have a link to the filament you used?

Thanks! The copper heatsink is from Cooltex on Aliexpress (30x30x7mm) https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000107291369.html

This is a new revision of my UltraWii portable, named UltraWii Sakura! Huge thanks to @Aurelio for making this portable possible with his direct drive board. This portable would not exist without him. Here are the specs: -OMEGA-trimmed Wii motherboard -1S4P 3500mAh 18650s (~6.25hrs...

This is awesome! An excellent use of a Super Joy III.

My original stock of AVEflex is nearly gone, and I have no plans to get another batch anytime soon. So I'm releasing the Gerber files for anyone that wants to get these manufactured. This is a slightly updated design that entirely omits the unecessary POR RC circuit, and connects RESET to...

Got those scans uploaded! Hopefully they're helpful. https://bitbuilt.net/forums/index.php?threads/gbs8200-v4-0-scans-video-scaler-linedoubler.4074/ The GBS8200 board could be trimmed from the bottom up to the three RGB pots with minimal rewiring required (RGB+sync signals, buttons, etc.) You...

These are some quick and dirty 2400DPI scans of the cheap and widely available GBS8200 video converter board, which uses the TVIA Trueview5725. It's perfect for converting 240p RGBs from old consoles into 480p VGA. It can also do other things, like motion adaptive deinterlacing and downscaling...

I haven't trimmed a SNES (skipped straight to redesigning the 1-chip motherboard) but there are lots of handy SNES PCB scans at both the PCB Strip Club and here on BB. Should be enough to help you puzzle out a trim! I believe the GBS8200 is a 2-layer board, so it should be easy to trim off...

Yeah, the picture is really amazing. Indistinguishable from an emulator at times! 1. Yes, this is an RGB-modded Snes Jr., so it's the highest quality RGB signal you can get from a SNES. All models of SNES can output RGB so there's no reason to not use it. 2. No sync stripping or extra...

I am using a GBS8200 with the modified GBScontrol firmware in my αSNES project. The result is virtually pixel-perfect and looks incredible. Lots of guides available on the GBScontrol GitHub wiki on setting it up. Definitely a great option if you're going to use a linedoubler.

Sorry, it's the LM1881, not 1181. The datasheet I linked is the right one nontheless. There should be breakout boards for sale online, it's a common IC. You'll probably need some exta circuitry to generate H-sync from the LM1881, but there are example circuits online. This page seems like a good...

The RTD2660 and 2662 *can* support composite sync input, but most firmware used on common driver boards only supports RGBHV (VGA). If you use a sync splitter (like the LM1881) you can get H-sync and V-sync from the SNES's C-sync output. But the resulting signal will be a progressive 15kHz...

Over the past couple days, I assembled the G-Boy kit Gman sent me for the BB Secret Santa exchange! I used my prototype direct drive (courtesy of Aurelio) and an IPS 640x480 panel. Who needs the AVE, anyway? Assembly was super easy thanks to the clearly-labeled PCBs and the excellent manual...
