„The result may not be perfect, but it is far better than just ‚working‘.”
Making cool electronics is often a damn fiddly process requiring hand eye coordination at a microscale. This isn’t helped by the fact that components continue to get smaller and more complicated, thanks a lot Moore. The benefit of this progression in tech is we can make grander things in little packages. Some of which might have been completely out of the individual’s ability before due to price or availability as well as skill. Well, that is until Tobi decided to show us all how to solder an itty bitty board with the same life skills as making a slightly complicated grilled cheese.
Hackaday shared the little soldering trick Tobi’s been using to make all sorts of neat things, including an upgraded GameBoy. The main goal in this project was to create a GameBoy with an upgraded screen that still fits into the form factor of the original portable gaming handheld.
