    It needs to be a gba

    Love the color way, nice job! By the way, those two bridged pins on the CPU are both connected to ground, so the bridge is fine.
    EDIT: Made this comment before finishing the video, so I feel I should address some of the complaints.
    1. Basically all of the fit issues are because the print is oversized. The GitHub for the project suggests having it printed at 99.7% scale because PCBWay has been pretty consistent about printing too large, and the size difference differs from print to print. Nothing I can really do about that, unfortunately.
    2. I released the STEP files for the volume wheel specifically so that it could be ordered for cheaper elsewhere. At the time I released the project, it was about $5 to get machined at JLCPCB(probably more now, but still cheaper than PCBWay).
    3. More a general note about audio, but the latest version of the PCB and BOM reduces top volume below the point where it starts getting distorted. Also adds spring contact speakers! Makes install a lot easier.

      I did follow your GitHub and did scale the print down as suggested. Ultimately wasn’t a huge deal but I still wanted to point it out.
      It is nice that it’s cheaper with another service but I still believe the classic volume wheel would have worked just fine and been even cheaper. It’s your design not mine though and that’s okay.
      Even at max they sounded fantastic but I’m glad you’re still improving it!
      Overall I do like your frog boy and I am excited to see what you come up with next. Glad you like the colors too. All the bridging drama was for nothing then 🤷🏼‍♂️

    I hope this idea is developed and eventually becomes a kit because this form factor is so much better. If FunnyPlaying can do a FPGA board that’s mass produced, surely something like this is possible without so many custom parts and we can finally have a GBC without the hand cramps.

    Which material did you use for the shell? Was it PCBWay's translucent UTR-8100 with dye? Looks great.

    Hey Jake, I was wondering if you could make a tutorial video on how to replace gba capacitors

    • @JakeSimmons
      @JakeSimmons  8 днів тому

      I might make one in the future on the second channel but don’t hold your breath. In the meantime, I do have a video where I replaced a bunch of capacitors on a GameCube that you may find helpful

      No nostalgia for them really. Lack of mod support too

      @JakeSimmons hey brah I get the nostalgia part but I've seen a decent community with the mods. I appreciate the viewpoint tho and the content. Your "you can do this" additions really encouraged me to start melting tin.
