i've seen versions of these at places which are for general charging needs (not nintendo specific). 

i last saw them at this store called Ollie's, which carries stuff they buy in bulk from 'last season' from other stores that don't want it, seconds, factory rejects/etc.  not sure what you call stores like that.  "Ollie's Bargain Outlet' i think is its name,

I'll check when I'm there next.  I KNOW they had them for general use, I'm not sure what the specs on it were though.  if they've still got it when i go back buy, i'll pick a few up.  most of that store is super cheap too

or, an internally mounted version of the project? (direct hookup to sound inside the console, RCA video jack out)

there are other packages available for the main IC, other than the DIP package.  adding ICSP to the board for programming wouldn't be hard

based off an open source project, modified code, here's the original:  http://makezine.com/projects/pixelmusic-3000/

modifying the original shouldn't be too hard...  source code is on the gadget gangsta site (they said, i haven't found it yet), and the original project has schematic and source code for it.

you could even modify it to make it BETTER for you wink

the clamshell types use lithium batteries, they'll probably be sent either by boat, or sans-battery (just a heads up...  mailing (lithium ion) batteries has gotten real tricky lately)

this is for physical item mailings, so how does email help out with that?

GB BOY COLOURS are (indefinitely) a discontinued product.   CANCELLED!

just got the word from the manufacturer.

just sayin', in case anyone was wondering why (most) ebay prices went 2x or 3x overnight....   (if you can find one at the old prices, might be the time)

got it.  happy.  good day

putting the OS into test mode, and signing the drivers, are two separate steps.  make sure you've done both wink
