    Pi Zero W GBA [WIP]

    Okay so I've got and setup the new screen but I don't like it at all. I don't know if this can be tweaked (probably, I just haven't tried yet) but the screen's dpi is messed up (everything it too small, which is probably just a wrongly set resolution from before when I had a tv connected), and...

    Pi Zero W GBA [WIP]

    I've removed the connection pins on the screen because they took up to much space. I'm wondering if I would actually need this mini SD card slot... More than likely it's for debugging or flashing firmware.

    That is not necessary anymore. The screen I've got will be connected via the GPIO pins.

    Pi Zero W GBA [WIP]

    I got the PowerBoost 1000 because it converts it to a 5V 1A input for the Pi Zero W. And I got that Li-Po 3.7V 2500 mAh battery because it's small, will last long and it was what the PowerBoost could use. So... I believe I have everything ordered now, I just have to wait for everything to arrive...

    Pi Zero W GBA [WIP]

    I have the expertise to save my $$$ that's why I don't want to take the easy way. Plus I plan on fabricating my own custom PCBs anyways. auto @DeoNaught I made a mistake earlier about the batteries, I said "5A" as in Amp when that should have been 5000 mAh, which is completely different. The...

    Okay thanks I'll look into those. I might be able to utilize the AA bay in the GBA after all!

    Pi Zero W GBA [WIP]

    Um 3.7V 5A... that battery won't work. The Pi Zero W needs a 5V 2A (5V is necessary & IMO 2A is the happy medium).
