So the next thing I have to deal with is moving. I'm planning to disable ordering from the site. I'll get those shipped off and work through the last few issues I'm communicating with people on. Likely to be able to turn the site back on in early October.
Thanks

So at long last we are through the vast majority of orders. We are down to the last 10 or so orders. Should get most of them taken care of tomorrow and resolve some of the issues we have run into. Here is a picture of the pallet the packages came on.

Quick update. Castlemania shells are on the way. I forgot to take a picture so have one of the space the pallets used to be. Today packed 70 orders at that rate I should be caught up sometime Monday.

Alright quick update. Working through Gamecube orders have some with tracking which will get dropped off Saturday. So normally I would insist on shipping out orders from oldest to newest, but the way the factory packed them they didn't include the order numbers on them. (1/3)

At long last finally delivered. Was not expecting them to drop them on the street so spent the last 2 hours dragging them all in side (thank goodness I have a dolly). (1/2)

First let me apologize for the delay in communication. I have a lot going on right now mixed with some illness which has made things difficult. Gamecube shells are now in transit to me and are estimated to arrive around July 20th.(1/3)

We have a long awaited Gamecube update. I hate to send these so close to the predicted day but many things have become more clear even in the last few days. (1/5)

I got myself a test unit of the SNEdge to fix the blur on SNES’ RGB output. Goal was to help map PAL model differences, but let me share the results, as this is truly awesome!

Since so many people were interested I took some quick pictures of my dip desoldering tool or 'DeDipper'. It's pretty jank right now but I'll make a short video showing it.

Off to a great start with harvesting chips. I designed a special tool to heat all the joints at once and I'm pretty happy at how well it's working. I'll have to show it off soon.

Quick preview of the NES Hub Disk Adapter. This one doesn't work because of some pinout confusion. I have a new board just need to time to throw it together and test.

So catching up on things. The last version of Opentendo we ordered had a small issue we missed from moving it from Kicad 5 to Kicad 8. The clock schematic symbol changed so it was no longer actually connected. So when the pcb was updated it ended up not connected. Whoops.

Worked on a whole bunch of extended converters and finally have them in stock. Even did some different colors up to try and use up some extra shells I have. You can grab them here.

Behold…the #LaserActive PAC-X10!
32X working like a champ through the PAC-S10! This version uses standard 64 pin IDC cables with grounds between each signal, otherwise this doesn’t work! Will need a long patch cable, either via a coupler or have @misirajeduart.bsky.social build you a longer one 😬
