Hi all,
First post here and I'm glad to be here! I've done some light modding/soldering/console repair in the past. Made a "pro-sound" backlit dmg a few years back for chiptuning and all that fun stuff, so, naturally I knew one day I'd be building a gameboy pi of some sort. I'm really feeling the gameboy pocket form factor, so I went ahead and ordered the PCB only from galaxygaming.co.uk hopefully should keep me busy until the mintypi v3 gets in (placed my preorder last night!!!)
Now I wasn't thinking, and just ordered the pcb, I see there are some various smd componants (the lil things that you can see in wermy's video - resistors mostly?) that I did not think to buy/message the good folks at galaxy gaming for. Its on his parts list, but I'm "over the pond" and have already ordered the pcb, just wondering if anyone can steer me to someone who would be able to furnish, or a website to get all the small bits from that arent too much in bulk?
Appreciate the effort, just looking for someone who went the same route as me and decided to source their own parts instead of just buying the kit and could provide a little direction? Thanks!

Ah, word from right from the top.
Thanks Helder! Much appreciated, I'll look into it. Nothing like tiny....tiny components.

Thanks again for the feedback.
I was able to order almost everything on arrow.com. However one part - 0805ZD104KAT2A AVX - was sold out on arrow, and I can't seem to source it anywhere, does anyone have any tips as to where I can get that one piece without waiting 28 weeks?!

Any of the ones you find will work, it's a generic decoupling capacitor that can be from any manufacturer. You can even get higher voltage ones too without any problems.
