Fuck Nintendo

Diy is a lifestyle

It’s garbage for learning a language but it’s phenomenal for memorizing and gameifying learning nouns and verbs. I’ve been going through the Japanese lessons one jump at a time and it’s been great to brush up on all the words I’ve forgotten.

I have been enjoying the original console I designed and built myself running a raspberry pi 5 and a fully built and compiled retropie that can crank out some dolphin and redream with full 60fps. I have plenty 90s gaming I need to catch up on.

For everything moderately modern, I have a steam deck. If it doesn’t or cannot run on my retropie or my deck then I’ll wait till the next hardware refresh. If it takes half a decade, all the better.

Unfortunately your guide links to stuff on adafruit that’s out of stock - mostly the screen/microprocessor…

I found this guide that has a walk through with full code and an easy to use library for making the interface quite a bit better:

I’m going to be building two initially for myself and my girlfriends kid but once I work out the details I’ll post it up on the fediverse somewhere with the full code to get going.

I am much more keen to use C instead of Python for something like a clock although I’m sure circuit-python is fast enough, id rather stick to native libraries.

I kinda wanna reverse/side engineer a replica you can DIY because fuck Nintendo.

gross.

That’s just a false dichotomy fallacy.

So…Not the WFH crowd…

Me too but even when I was down and out I was still thankful I had the shots beforehand so it wasn’t as bad as it could have been.

Who’s fault is that?

The screenshots in the IGN page for the game itself look like something last gen. What the fuck? It’s not even up to Stray/CP2077 fidelity and those run on my fucking Steamdeck…

Is the suxbox that much of a dumpster fire?
