A good 3-4 months of work, almost there almosssssst there

Some people don't know about the exploding Samsung Galaxy Notes and it shows

As part of a collaboration with the incredibly talented @redherring32.com of Opentendo fame, we are happy to announce the OpenTendo-AGB (OpenGBA)! This is a fully open source recreation of the AGB-CPU-01 circuit board.

PicoIDE An open source IDE/ATAPI drive emulator for vintage computers

The PicoIDE Crowd Supply campaign is now live! Back the project to be among the first to get yours! PicoIDE is an open IDE/ATAPI drive emulator for retro systems. www.crowdsupply.com/polpotronics...

PicoIDE - Open Source IDE/ATAPI Drive Emulator Emulates ATAPI CD-ROM and IDE hard drives with built-in CD audio output and optional WiFi front panel interface. Fully open source firmware and hardware.

@polpo.org joins us this week to talk optical media fragility, "cursed IDE controllers," & more, as ATAPI CD-ROM / IDE fixed hard drive replacement PicoIDE is ready for production.

The campaign launches today, see picoide.com for details, and watch this Saturday on This Week in Retro episode 253!

Gooners will see this and say "Hell Yea"

The weirdest game boy that has ever existed

My take on a Neo Geo OMVS console case.

A screen showing Windows 98 running the Nero CD/DVD speed benchmark. Average read speed is 74.30x

A screen showing the Speedsys benchmark, showing 15626 KB/s linear read speed

Finishing things up for #PicoIDE and it just about saturates the IDE bus in MWDMA mode 2. I’m pretty happy with this! It tests as fast as a 74x CD-rom drive which means there’s a bit more headroom in that mode but that could be the CPU on this K6-2 system being a bottleneck.

OpenTendo-Twin, an open source recreation of the Sharp Twin Famicom (A Famicom with a Famicom Disk System built in) is in the final stages before release.

The highlighted nets are all that are left, testing and then release should happen quite soon.

BlueSCSI Ultra & Ultra Wide Announcement Announcing BlueSCSI Ultra and Ultra Wide - 68-pin 16-bit Ultra Wide support, integrated RP2350B, Front Panel support, and more.

Ringing in the new year with a great addition to the BlueSCSI family: Introducing BlueSCSI Ultra!

I have been able to keep the original Lego power switch mechanism by changing only a few tiny things. I'm super happy with v0.4.2 of the housing. It might be PCB order time

Added the USB C PCB edge connector to the DSPico cart to replace the micro USB port. I'll see how it goes and then fork it.

My son loves snap circuits

I don't think you'll notice a latency difference between the 8BitDo mod kit w/ the Retro Receiver and the NSO Gamecube controller with a BlueRetro adapter, they both have around 1 frame of latency

I'm not 100% sure when the video will be out, but I managed to collect some latency data for the NSO Gamecube controller.

I need to start collecting more samples. Up until now, I was collecting around 2000 samples, but with this controller I captured 5000.

Controller modding is just so much fun: here are some gorgeous Alpakkas to make your day better! 😊🎮

Thanks to our amazing community! ❤

How will your Alpakka look like? 😉

Clicky switches 🤢

Are you ready?

Next, the Alpakka 2: the performance of a mouse and the convenience of a controller.😎

The only open-source gaming controller designed for gyro technology.

The first of its kind: quad-gyro and ultra-low latency.

Beta test!

Thank you so much for an amazing project!

You enabled so many retro consoles to have high quality wireless controllers that look like the originals, and for that, you will always be a legend.

After 6 years working on BlueRetro, the time has come for me to move on and focus on my family and my real job.

Thank you to everyone who contributed, tested, reported issues, or supported the project over the years.
Your involvement made BlueRetro what it is today.

I've been really struggling this week buuuuut I got my home made screen in the build

And they tried to tell me it shouldn’t be done! But behold! The #Cuboid!
It’s rocking both the GCLoader and the Dual. And also, it’s shorter!
SD card smartly tucks in the back above the optional handle.

What’s the best GameBoy Color screen in the year of our lord 2025?

Two PicoIDE devices stacked on top of each other. The top one has a status screen showing a top bar with “cdrom” and “[3/5]”, large text in the middle showing “MechWarrior 2.cu” and a bottom line showing that it’s playing audio tracks

Gave the status screen of #PicoIDE a bit of a refresh.

i5 4670K, 780 TI

Actually we’re not gaming because I can’t get the driver to work 😭
