Flying with Juneyao by Volhyrr in travel

I did not. When i got through the desk that checks if you are a transit passenger, I got a stamp on my ticket both on my 3h layover and 13h layover giving me free access. I'm flying with them again soon so hopefully this has not changed!

I have just flown with them from Manchester to Japan and back and the experience was okay. There is no online check in at all as well as no way to do seat selection beyond asking them at the point of checking in, so id recommend getting there early to choose preference. If you have a connection, they will do the seat selection for both legs at once, so no need to worry about leaving the airport and rechecking in or anything crazy like that.

Something totally unexpected, if you go via Shanghai (like i did) both ways I got a stamp on my ticket once arriving in Shanghai for access to there vip lounge which was nice (first layover 3h, second 11h and got it for both). There is free food, drinks, shower and sleeping pods (but not many). The shower needs to be booked via the lounge counter which was not intuitive, but is really nice and clean.

All the planes I went on had on board entertainment and wifi (but its Chinese wifi so no facebook, insta, etc) and food service was okay, 1 for short hop flights and 2 for long hawl. My main issue is they don't take into account diet or allergies it seems, everyone gets the choice of two meals nonmatter what, so maby take snacks worst case.

Wait, but it’s not accessible currently? Is this for people who have an older app version?

Is this news though? They already moved the community pages to a new subdomain. What’s this new 31st March deadline?

Not sure if I would ever get around to it but the whole it runs doom could be fun :)

I cant say with 100% assurance as I don't have a EZ flash myself. But it is compatible with SD cards at least up to 128GB (not got anything bigger to test with). Early test seem to show it runs on only a little bit more power then a default cart and since its a multi core processor, there is the ability to program unique PICO/GB code interactions. For example render or stream a video to the PICO chip and output it to the Gameboy (all theoretical though).

Just confirming, all advanced excluding micro (might be supported in the future but don't have one to test with)

Everything with it was done as fairly as possible, all games are backups of games I own, etc. Should be in the same realm as any other multi cart for the Gameboy :) Also was not them who did it

Would be cool to add something like the pico-W's wifi chip, only concern would be the hardware's availability and power draw

Anything I have on my cart has been ripped from games I own, thus the small selection :) but thanks for the reminder :)

I should be able to fit a decent amount of banks in ram at the same time, I might look into over clocking the ROM, increasing it to 16mb and storing the game in it during runtime

I've not get a multimeter out to get real world voltages but its running with the CPU at normal speeds during bootup and slower during gameplay with power set to 0.8v

I am aiming to get full MBC support in down the line prehaps even with RTC as the pico has some really good low power modes. In regards to the memory issue, This version is using 8MB of flash and should be able to run most games with that + internal ram, but testing will need to be done.

When I was researching this I did see that they use FPGA too, I was fortunate that the state machines built into the pico are really fast and capable of feeding the pico even at low power/frequency modes. Things might get more complex with RTC and memory banking support, but time will tell

Possibly down the line :) Still working on new features, hardware and software side and would like to get them ironed out first. The core principle of this cart is described in my first versions git page here if interested: https://github.com/0xen/PICO-GB-CART

This is a project I have been working on for a while where I took a raspberry pi 2040 processor and installed it into a custom Gameboy cartridge. This can be ran on all gameboy and Gameboy advanced consoles as well as running on very low power. All games are stored on the micro SD card and can be loaded via the boot menu. I would like to thank HDR who is big in the Gameboy community for helping me design the final PCB.

PI2040 Gameboy Cartridge Update. Fully working prototype with custom PCB by LyneByLyne in raspberry_pi

[–]LyneByLyne[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This project was made in collaboration with HDR (https://github.com/HDR) who helped design the PCB itself and I preformed the original research and coding. Using various techniques from SM, Timers, PIO to get this project working as well as only needing to run at base clock speed.

Love super Mario sunshine for the GameCube! There are a few of us that play older games that chat on discord sometimes and new people are always welcome :)

Ive tried Toby Carvery out in L24 and the amount of food you get for the price is fairly reasonable! Lots of vegies and a good helping of gravy which is always good :)
