ESP32 Mini Game Console - Game Wing

This video shows a self made retro game console. Powered by
The console is designed as a Feather Wing for the Adafruit Huzzah32 micro controller. It uses I2S and the internal DACs to create a color PAL signal and mono sound. Two SNES controller connectors provide the input to make it simple console. The SD card slot should provide the possibility to additional game data. The 3D printed case resembles an old fashion Super Nintendo console. A simple PCB is designed and soldered and some tips and tricks are explained how to make the life easier. Have fun!

Thanks so much for the idea about the thick tip! That just made my life so much easier de-soldering a thick wire

I like it! Instead of heaving to find 9 friends to play on the 10 Player Game Console I now only have to find 1 friend! That just might be possible! :)

I really like your music choice. The project is nice as well. I'm all ways holding myself back from ordering PCBs because of the shipping costs.

[zeffofx]

awesome! this is really really amazing. now I think you should make a tutorial of how to develop games on this console, so that other people might create some awesome games for your console!

[antonnym]

I'm so glad i found you! Pure fun! I subscribed immediately! alles guten wünsche.

Great🤘 the last retrogaming consoles I've build were retropie and pong with an 16F84 😊. Love this

[ovi_]

Oh yeahhhh....I would love to see that one shown at the end even though i'm going to build the current working one as well
Fantastic job Mr.

I dig my own solder flux pine pine trees. Dig out old hard tree resin from a wound in the trees bark. Dissolve in isopropyl alcohol and sift through a coffee filter. Boil the dissolved resin until both the isopropylalcohol and the resins remaining terpentine have evaporated (160+ degrees celcius). Let it cool to room temp and then add just enough isopropyl alcohol to dissolve the now hard treeresin. You now have a concentrate of flux. You can add some glycerine to make it a bit stickier, but I have found the concentrate is fine just as it is.
It smells awesome and I don't really think it's any harmful, since people have eaten it, gotten it in their lungs and on the skin through wood, and never have i heard anyone say " Stay away from pineresin, because it is dangeous". So

I will always be happy to watch your content, Bitluni :)

Impressive. I did not know the ESP could be used this way. I did not know I have some consoles flying around :D

Haha deine Lache immer zwischendrin - 😂👌 Sehr nice!

[michaelsablan]

creative, talented and genius you are....your video choreographing and background enhancements are great, seen a few of your videos already starting with your cheap CNC machine. I am mechanically inclined, an aircraft mechanic/ technician and would like to do what you do BUT....it is so alien to me, I get lost in most of the technical stuff you present, hahaha! When someone learns I’m a mechanic, they think you can fix anything, hahaha! NOT! The ability is there though....TO LEARN with the skill set already acquired. Thanks for giving the time and sharing. ALOHA BRADDAH!

[TradieTrev]

That's a really neat little design!

[tetradprint]

Love the case! I also use blender to make models for 3d printing, I did have to look away when you used that knife on the bed though!

[aldikiller]

Super, geniale Idee.. ist dir echt gelungen.. weiter so..

[pierrefpv]

I am very interested to see the resistor ladder working for creating a composite video signal. It seems from your ESP32 VGA video that you can get 20M samples instead of 13M with the internal DAC so it should improve the color encoding.

What is that beautiful board you are showing at time 6:02 ??
One you've made? one you've bought? One made up from GitHub?
Is that dual USB with hub circuitry & SD card...as I salivate!

[garagemonkeysan]

Great project! Nice video. Mahalo for sharing! : )

[NoviSavvy]

I'd like to see more about DSP with ESP32 uC. I think it may be suitable to process audio or radio signals

[rakhmatvaris]

I like your channel. You provide an alternative component that is easily available. maybe not the best but it's quite worth using. such as components from china / aliexpress. I know German components or products are the best. but not everyone can afford to buy components or products from Germany.
