Another DYI Gamebuino (BBGameBuino clone)
Posted: Mon Jun 29, 2015 2:34 pm
Hi. It's vacation project with my almost 11yo son. We've followed the BBGameBuino project by Treflip (http://gamebuino.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=817).
Everything works fine, the only adjustment we've made is add 10uF capacitor between ground and Vcc.
The main problem was to flash bootloader using current Arduino software. Solution is to add following configuration to the boards.txt and copying 'hardware/gamebuino/bootloaders' content to the 'hardware/arduino/avt/bootloaders' of the Arduino software installation.
Result:
Further plans: game (Dog&Bones in progress), lion battery (waiting for the ordered charger chip), plexiglass cover.
