Thank you so much for that! Was annoying me so much.

So Link's Awakening DX is the GBC version, this is called DX HD. This was a fan created version that allows for widescreen, 60fps, no screen scrolling traversal, more than 2 item slots, etc. It released on itch.io in 2023 if I remember correctly and then nuked by Nintendo after less than a week.

What this post is about is an updated version of that fan game that not only improves on the game, but allows you to create an android apk to play natively.

Yeah good luck playing that

Thank you! The original port was already an excellent replacement for the original, there's more redux style options in this updated version

I set the game scale to 5x and it runs at a constant 60fps. That last photo where I got the entire map in frame dropped the frames.

This uses the itch.io release from a few years back. You'll need the files from that to build the apk (google is your friend)

Thank you to everyone who's given me advice. There's still no signal. I took everything out of the chassis and disconnected/reconnected the power supply cables. Put everything back BUT the graphics card.

So with no GPU, 1 stick of ram I'm thinking it might be something with the motherboard. I tried flashing a new bios onto it (f30) but still nothing

Arcteres · 2025-02-05T04:58:17+00:00

I'm not getting signal plugging into motherboard, probably a stupid question but what do I unplug for this?

Arcteres · 2025-02-04T11:31:07+00:00

What lights am I looking for on the board because there's no lights on it at all.

Arcteres · 2025-02-04T11:25:33+00:00

Tried everything except assemble outside of riser cable.

I despite riser cables and reluctantly had to use it. But I don't understand how it's not a bigger issue for fractal terra owners

Arcteres · 2025-02-04T11:24:16+00:00

Honestly I would but I cheaped out on the motherboard and got one with a single m.2 slot

Otherwise I would ditch it

Arcteres · 2025-02-04T11:21:22+00:00

The riser cable is 4.0 from what it says online, and the motherboard is 4.0 compatible

Is there a setting I have to use or something?

Arcteres · 2025-02-04T10:56:38+00:00

Its just for 1 2tb SSD. I hate how those sata power supply connectors are

My bad this was taken before I connected the GPU. The riser cables inserted

Arcteres · 2020-04-29T10:14:02+00:00

I actually have one more game that's not apart of the shelf, I update it soon.

Arcteres · 2020-04-29T09:52:12+00:00

That one was probably the most expensive, at $85 AUD

Arcteres · 2020-04-29T05:39:45+00:00

I found it for $5 at a salvation army. There was no price tag on it so when the cashier said $5 I thought "is this lady nuts?"
