BACK FROM THE DEAD! yes people this project is finally BACK ON TRACK after a long intermission of sorts i have been working on it and have a few updates. Sorry no pictures yet, keeping it under wraps for now!
FEATURE LIST:
*4 port powered USB host hub (step up regulator for full 5v usb power!)
*4600mah Li-Poly battery for greatly extended battery life (8+ hours!)
*Built in S-video output port
*Relocated headphone jack
*NES D-Pad modification
*All new look (significantly modified GP2x case)
*Custom paintjob
*Custom box! (cool idea i had to make an official looking retail style package)
The goal is to have the gp2x completely done in time for the Midwest Gaming Classic so i can deliver it in person to my customer (and good friend) Kilgore!
PROGRESS:
case/cosmetics: 50% appx
wiring: 20-30% appx, have the joystick removed and all of the parts except the battery and protection circuit, should have that by end of january then its just a bunch of soldering to do!
