[spoiler="NES PCB Board"] http://i.imgur.com/VCjSgit.jpg [/spoiler] You might be just better off bypassing it altogether and just wiring straight to a RCA port, or of course you just wire up HMDI!

HELP! Noise Reduction

Hi Guys, While waiting for my Adafruit display to arrive, I worked on another project. I will put a post about the project when I'm done.

Re: *WiFi Dongle Idea* Need Help!

a 6-pin firewire port can be made to fit into that spot. actually, the DMG link ports were a basis for that design (its mentioned somewhere in the firewire founding docs if you check those out, from when the protocol was developed/proposed). unfortunately, that link port is not available as a repla...

Re: *WiFi Dongle Idea* Need Help!

Just found out that Thursday Customs' USB Boy has the port on it. The Board costs $80 US though, so I will be looking for other options.

*WiFi Dongle Idea* Need Help!

Okay, this might be kinda long... Anyhow, I had an idea that I thought might be a nice solution for WiFi on the GameBoy Zero. Here we go! I believe that in wermy's GameBoy Zero (DMG-00, perhaps?) he attached a WiFi dongle to the USB hub inside the GameBoy itself. While I am sure this works great, I ...
