I used GB Studio to make it, and it took me a few hours of messing around to get it working, with zero prior knowledge of how to use GB Studio beyond making a splash screen, lol.
v1.0 - Initial release, has Button Test.
v1.1 - Now has a main menu. It contains button test, and a screen test. You...
I ordered the screen directly from Funnyplaying's website because they're the cheapest at just $48 USD, and I have some new button membranes coming from Handheld Legend. But I ordered everything else I needed to build my aluminum (Aluminium?) "Hingeless" Gameboy Advance SP. It's going to be...
She got her tax refund of $4,000 and got me the Ember 2 adjustable heat 14oz coffee mug. I'm new to this thing, but of all the ones I've researched on Amazon, I kept coming back to it. It's gonna be weird not microwaving hot water in the mug directly anymore, I'll have to get used to that... But...
Haven't fired up my Wii U in a few years since the Switch launched. I missed it.
Today marks the one year of my brother Andrew's death, and it still hurts as bad as the day I lost him. I've been depressed as hell, sad, full of grief, and just overall not in a good state of mind. I try to keep myself distracted with projects, but they're only a small bandage for the huge...
As seen in these pictures, I have modernized and cleaned up all the Chinglish text that slides off the sides of the message boxes mid-word, something that has always annoyed the crap out of me. But I'm not finished yet.
I need help with the error messages. I haven't come across any, so if...
It fucks up the Scraping process and adds HOURS of manual correcting. So if you dump game ROMs and name them this way for others to download in a ROMpack, you've got a big "fuck you" coming your way from me. :hateit:
Love yas! :wub:

Going to screw down my Pi 3B into the Retroflag SNES case, I forgot about the SD card, and I heard that all-familiar "snap" after screwing the board down... Hours of setup wasted, my config.txt file not backed up either... FUCK MY LIFE!
Update: I am a goddamn idiot, there was a small piece of...
I don't have a case on the Pi 3 yet, but it should work perfectly in the SNES case I have laying around. Running the latest vanilla Retropie build. Using a DualShock 4 controller via Bluetooth. Working flawlessly.
(Getting over scan to go away on a CRT without access to the service menu is a...
I finally have the GBA I always wanted as a teenager... Backlit IPS screen, rechargeable battery that lasts, custom shell and button colors, and a cartridge with every Gameboy game I could ever want on it. The IPS display is stunning, as usual. I believe it's the same panel they use for their...
I ordered the TerraPi vertical SSD mounting kit from Inux3D at theterrapi.com. They have lots of cool stuff. It's very clever how they utilize the SSD as the mounting plate for the whole thing, taking full advantage of it's screw holes. I also ordered their flat copper heatsink too, and some...
They'll wait until I die, and then choose to lose the match. It happens more than it doesn't. Or I'll be the first to die, and when I respawn, everyone else is dead, and I'll have nobody to jump to. Talk about aggravating!

It looks super cute! I also hope they let us mix and match our own clothing... Like, let us have girly hair with boy clothes, boy hair with girl clothes, etc. Kinda sad the boy octolings can't wear the school uniform with the skirt, ya know?
You can freely post your depression stories here if you want, no judgement. I'd just love the company. Feeling pretty under the weather today myself.
What are some ways you stave off your depression?
Me, I like distracting myself by building cool shit:
In his honor, I set up his old N64 in my spare bedroom. It's like a significant part of him is still here with me. It warms my heart having this little machine up and running after 20 years.
Back in 2005, I got his permission to overclock it to 125MHz, and did an LED swap to green. Sure...
I just had a spare plastic lens and some extra buttons to throw inside this decrepid beast. It's literally only kept around for testing romhacks and carts on a stock DMG, as all I've done to it is wire in a 3DS battery mod to it. I plan on keeping the screen stock, as there's no lines or missing...
Bought all the parts from Handheld Legend, except for the glass holographic lens. The glass lens came with the donor Gameboy I bought off Mercari for $57. I was honestly shocked it came with one, the dude that sold it must have done a refurb on it, because the inside of the original Glacier...
What started out as a simple "no bullshit" greyscale theme I made, turned into a theme and Non-Chinglish kernel mod. I can't stand the way the text shifted mid-word to the next line, it's just stupid. So I edited the text strings using HxD hex editor. Tested on actual hardware too, so there's...
I sourced the "Goku Drip" and all other images from Google. All Splatoon art is official by Nintendo. Not sure who the Goku Drip artist was, but props to him as well.
I made two versions, one with the Splatoon 2 logo in the corner, and one without. (Feel free to roast my ass all you want, I...

I think I'm going to be sick... :sad:
