    Hey Adam. I've never soldered to a tinkerboy before. Any tips or is it a matter that as long as the wire and hole/spot meet with solder, it should work?

    You're talking quite fast and skimming past a lot of small details. Slow down a little.

    • @Adamstech
      @Adamstech  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Audience retention play's a great part in making of these videos
      In the future I might upload full lenght tutorials.
      I assumed that some basic stuff I didn't had to show but apparently I was wrong.

    • @xThuby
      @xThuby 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Well if you want to skip over basics or not show a lot of simple details you need to know what audience you're targeting. If you want to target a more advanced audience I suggest changing the format of your videos to a more lenient and more "documentary" style. The format you're using now is usually used for videos which have a strong focus on tutorialising.

    • @Adamstech
      @Adamstech  6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I get your point of view but I disagree, an advanced audience will know the basic steps of polarity and soldering, and for the "documentary" style I am currently working on a project of that type, thanks for the feedback I appreciate it!

  • @sguttmann1
    @sguttmann1 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Great video. Very informative. Is the USB port on the right side of the Gameboy functional? If so, how was it wired? Also, where can I find the files for the 3D printed part for the switch? Thanks.

    • @Adamstech
      @Adamstech  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      The USB ended up not functional, but is pretty easy, any micro USB OTG hub works, just make sure that you got the power and ground soldered to the power boost and the Data cables soldered to the USB hub, Wermy got a good tutorial on that part, you might want to check it out!

    • @Adamstech
      @Adamstech  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      For the 3D files have a look on sudomod.com or get these market.sudomod.com/3d-printed-gbz-parts-full-set/

    • @sguttmann1
      @sguttmann1 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks. Found them. I tried using the USB OTG from the Pi Zero to the USB port, but ran into issues of the Pi not recognizing the Tinkerboy controller. I did not try wiring the power and ground to the Power Boost. It may be possible that the Pi Zero can only recognize only one USB input and that is being taken up by the Pro Micro.

    • @Adamstech
      @Adamstech  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Got the same issue xD, found that it matters a lot the hub that you got, This one I saw that it works,shop.pimoroni.com/products/three-port-usb-hub-with-ethernet-and-microb-connector?variant=22477883847&gclid=CjwKCAjwq57cBRBYEiwAdpx0vX8Y8z8Cw83UmfDXW6EXR3hQMGvOhpHpqGPf5QjCNbTBopTbpuaXshoCYtIQAvD_BwE

    If you'd like to review the original build guides or have any questions you can visit www.sudomod.com. There's a dedicated gameboy zero forum where you can get ideas and ask questions related to your build.
    Also, you want to choose to support the creator of those 3d printed parts directly instead of someone who downloaded the files and is selling them.
    You can purchase the original 3d parts from the creator here: market.sudomod.com/3d-printed-gbz-parts-full-set/
