I just finished my Shawazu game Boy dumper project! I originally got it to rescue my Pokemon before the battery dies, but now I use it to archive my game collection and play it on the steam deck! Building it was fun, but soldering all those little cartridge connections was a bit tricky. I also needed to compile the firmware for the raspberry pico, which I have never done before. So i also learned a lot during the project. Unfortunately not every rom I dump works, and sometimes the file names are gibberish. I’ve read it’s because aftermarket cartridge connectors are not very high quality and I need to really push it against the connectors. Or maybe the firmware got a problem? Needs some more tinkering but it’s a fun project!


I know the dude that developed that personally. He gave me one of these kits for my birthday. Color me surprised they show up even here. X)
Please tell him that he did a great job!
