backlit, for the GBA.  doesn't require the death of a GBASP...  wink

^ he's right, you're best to just go with a backlit replacement LCD.  no need to sacrifice one console for another like this

i'll have them restocked most likely tomorrow, i want to test them first before i put them up in the shop just to be sure they made the journey alright

can someone who has a good communication line get in touch with them perhaps?  i get a feeling there is just some miscommunication happening here, might be as simple as a 'hey, heads up' from somebody with a contact happening.

i'd typically have them here http://store.kitsch-bent.com/product/ga … -cartridge

and will be restocking on the titles this week, so they'll be back shortly.  just happen to be out atm, its this weird timing right at the end of the last batch.  sign up for the newsletter up top, i'll send out the restock notice there

it'd be the most straightforward way to have it on a cart, the originals were released on functionally identical carts and flashcarts are overkill for single ROM non-memory cart usage

and this isn't to take away from xiwi's work at all.  i have one of the older pre-built units and love it...

there is a lot of hard work which goes into making a PCB, a kit, or any product.  don't want to detract from that

like, if i laid out a kick-ass Aboy kit, i'd not be able to give people a yes or no about whether they could use the Aboy design in their own product.  its not my right to answer that question. 

that's all i mean smile

totally ignore this.  i'm just wordy today i think

right, i understand that.  but unless you are using the eagle library files (assuming xiwi uses custom footprints that are unique in some way to the part datasheet) or xiwi's project source as your foundation to make the PCB, the work is based entirely off something that is already existing (whether it be in the commons, or whatever).  the original creator of that work is the one who gets the citation/etc.  like in a literary work.  citing a person who cited a person as your primary source is a step back from proper.  maybe i'm just over-thinking it though.  (or maybe i've missed changes xiwi added to the kit, i'm not aware of any features not on the original schematic, but am not looking at the product page atm either)

i don't care so much, i mean its great you are bothering to even ask anyone because its shocking how that goes over some peoples heads sometimes, just figured i'd mention it. 

carry on wink  i'd still run it by trash80 though, even if its just out of some courtesy whether you 'have' to do it or not, you feel

(i'd ask trash80 is you're seeking permission if you feel you need to do this, its his project)

edit - i mean, since xiwi's kit is based of trash80's work, ask the original creator.  someone who did a work derived from the original or copied the original isn't who should be asked about using the original.  the creator is.  in this case, trash80.  wink

if its a technical question, have at it.  its unclear from the words.  i'm assuming you mean to ask for the permission.

the ICSP header is what he means, for programming.  you can program in-circuit

they are talking about decoupling caps, 0.1uF, 10V should do it

here's a handy hack a day page on them!  http://hackaday.com/2008/09/29/parts-01 … apacitors/
