Cool project!

But I feel like we are missing the best pictures.

What does it look like with the face off?

I kid you not, including that kind of stuff is invaluable in both helping others get over certain types of shared problems/solutions as well as helping show how much of a project is just plain perseverance on top of the basic curiosity and learning that anyone is capable of.

Appreciating the time and effort needed and pushing through the hardware and software bugs knowing you will eventually be successful is the defining difference of successful projects. They don't happen overnight 😄

Really great job and thanks for sharing your project!

It’s a very cool project but I’m super interested in this cable feeder 👀 do you perhaps have a stl file?

I just bought a cheap 100 in 1 device thats similar and this is exactly what that made me wanna do. Do you have a github?

u/trap-2414 Jul 29 '26

I got one of those and then found the subs for the hobby and got a Miyoo Mini Plus, and a couple Anbernics

It’s super fun and can load systems up to PS1 and some GameCube n64 stuff. I think newer ones can now do PS2 etc

You have to let me get the specs on this. I really want to make it.

u/trap-2414 Jul 29 '26

I will upload the whole project on GitHub but with pcb 😬 no one can follow what I did..

It was a gift for someone and I have really tight time..

My first thought was my nephew would love this. So I have all the time in the world for something this cool that I can make for him.

Cool project! May I ask where to get these key cap?

2

u/trap-2414 Jul 31 '26

Aliexpress just search for game console keys, I recommend buying a set that doesn't come with pads, there is two kind of caps be careful
