    Waiting for the Pyra like....

    I'd say the smaller screen size definitely helps due to the higher ppi compared to TV's. Alternatively there is HDMI output.

    Waiting for the Pyra like....

    Video isn't that bad but it isn't HD of course. Text is totally readable and it's great for games. The hinges aren't great and once I'm done with the internals I may look for a different design for them, but on the plus side, I can always 3d print a couple new hinges pretty easily if they were...

    Waiting for the Pyra like....

    7" inch. I need 7 volts to power the screen as opposed to the 3.7 for powering the rpi so I'm currently waiting on some smd resistors for my boost converter. I also need to look into a controller I can use above the keyboard. I have a usb powered snes controller maybe I can cut up and use.

    Here are some more screen positions available with the hinge I went with, Though it's not a touchscreen so folding it all the way back is probably pretty pointless :p

    Waiting for the Pyra like....

    Most of the stuff I already had like the screen, rpi, charging circuit, 3d printer :p I did buy the keyboard and a battery though. If I were to estimate if would be $35 - rpi 2 $18 - screen for vehicle back up camera $16 - keyboard/mouse $5 - usb snes controller $20 - rechargable batteries $10...

    Waiting for the Pyra like....

    (Alternative Title: Ghetto Pandora) With no Pandora's available in the shop and the Pyra still a few months away at least, I decided I needed that handheld form factor ASAP so I started throwing this together. It will be powered by a Raspberry Pi 2 but really you could throw any SoC in there...

    Current statistics and some predictions

    So I believe we have enough preorders now to get the new touchscreen on the first batch of preorders correct? :p

    Current statistics and some predictions

    Has ED, spoken about this anywhere? I'm mainly wondering about the disadvantages of the touch layer currently being used (probably accuracy/sensitivity issues), but judging by the rate of preorder's it seems like they should get replaced before the first batch is shipped out (I hope).

    I too am curious about this new touchscreen as I haven't seen any info about other screens being considered.

    DragonBox multilingual-ing me

    I had the same thing happen to me after placing my preorder for the Pyra using gift card vouchers. I did get my emails in english containing my voucher code though.

    Best Handheld For Emulation

    well unless you looked on ebay, you wont really be able to find a psp with 1.5 on it, and 1.5 is where the homebrews at. I have and psp and had 1.5 but the homebrew was horrible on it, not 1 snes game played fullspeed, the gba emulator got like 2 fps and could only play 1 rom because there was...
