Re: [Guide] ili9341 SPI TFT Screen on Retropie

Does anybody know how much better the "wide viewing angle" screens actually are? Even if it's a slight improvement over ones that aren't marketed as one. It was my first time using an SPI earlier today (37 pin, 6 o'clock, 2.8") and the glare from looking at it head-on in landscape made me feel a lit...

Re: Wondering if connecting an sp ribbon cable to a pi 3 is possible

As awesome as it would be to use the GBA SP screen on a raspberry pi, it's currently not possible without serious modification. I've never seen one connected to a raspberry pi. Which sucks because it would be perfect for a ton of projects...

Re: [FOR SALE] Safe Shutdown v1.2 (for PowerBoost)

Looking forward to using this.

Also, one more question. I ordered the powerboost board on the 14th of February, do you have a rough ETA for America by any chance? (New York)

Re: [FOR SALE] Safe Shutdown v1.2 (for PowerBoost)

Hi Camble. I'm going to buy the Powerboost board for a project of mine, but I have one question beforehand. So I'm creating a gaming system that already uses the GPIO directly for button input.
