Still need to make the back half...

... write the code for the inputs (still stuck on naming problems)...

... and get some shorter cables.

Also probably revise ALL the boards (ouch, costs).

Oh, and find a battery.

Yet another thing is that the dpad + buttons are using the rubber dpad part from a GBA SP and buying two sets just for that part is a little wasteful. 🤔

Making a back and shoving all the mess in does make it look more finished...

Also made it a whole 3mm less wide!

(Bonus PicoSystem cameo)

Bigger display prototype (needs rework to be usable) and old case prototype (for totally different boards).

May have to do the two-colour thing again 🤔

I would connect something silly to my 3rd I2C connector, but I don't think I have anything that isn't a mini-gamepad 🤔

@arturo182.bsky.social 🤔 That would fit in the awkward space under the display as well...

(Maybe I should make some hints in a certain direction)

Make sure to add some shorter Qwiic cables 😉
