This is super cool! The music is great and I'm really happy to see the few extra songs. Also the mapper is implemented in discrete logic which is awesome and I'm not sure if I've ever seen it before! Here's the PCB for those curious:
And it has a custom super gameboy border!
Clearly nitro2k01 has done a fantastic job here, the whole team should be really proud!
When I try to favorite a song, I get this error in the JS console:
Couldn't update favorites in Firebase. FirebaseError: No document to update: projects/chip-player-js/databases/(default)/documents/users/kJumfDcQrSY56mmLhALymdrKH3G2
I was checking this out last night, this is awesome. Really impressive! I probably will be using this a lot at work.
Is the UI just home made by you, or is there some amazing CSS framework I need to be aware of?
One minor bug, if you scroll fast while a song is playing the audio sutters/jumps.
EDIT: another thing I would love is radio stations. Currently I listen to http://snesguide.com/ radio. Even if it was just a playlist of songs by console or something.
Just thought I'd post here to say that I've got a handful of these available if anyone is interested. $40 and comes with an 8GB SD card preflashed with the custom firmware and piggy tracker. If you're interested just email [email protected].
Just posting here that LGPT is running well on Bittboy Pocket and Bittboy Pocket GO. The Pocket Go is a pretty nice handheld, the build quality is better than all the other current emulator handhelds. The only downside is a 30hz screen so it's pretty bad for gaming. But for LGPT, it's absolutely perfect.
If there's interest, I could buy some Pocket Go's and offer them on my store preflashed with CFW and ready to go. Otherwise, they're available most places for about $40.
My favorite park was the fact that someone brought their son and allowed him to play Sanoc on the Nintendo. Too bad the tvs kept glitching out, hope he still had a good time!
You'll be able to backup and restore saves with any old flasher though, if you already have one laying around. The good thing is these should use a lot less power than the EMS (or even Drag n' Derp) carts so your Gameboy won't overheat and crash (I swear I've observed this happening at every show I've gone to).
Apparently EMS is discontinuing the 64 USB cart, not sure if they're going to replace it with something else.
Other than that the offerings from Krikzz and BennVenn are okay but SD based which I don't care for as much.
What's the advantage of retrofw over useless? I haven't kept up!
I don't think these devices can do usb host stuff so it wouldn't be possible. Devs over on discord would be able to answer. Honestly the mod is SO CLOSE to working, testing is just super slow.
