Interest Gauging - Borti N64 Advanced RGB Mod

Post by dryja123 »

Hello,

I'm partnering up with a good friend of mine, Helder from Sudomod, Assemblers, Sega-16 etc, to do a limited run of Borti's N64 Advanced RGB mod. We've currently ordered 20 kits to be fully fabricated, along with Borti's latest ribbon, as seen on a recent tweet: https://twitter.com/borti4938/status/12 ... 75361?s=20

Right now we're doing a limited run to see how easy it is to install and whether or not there are any bugs that need to be worked out. Would anyone be interested in purchasing kits if we do a run of these?

I know I'm new here, but you can see my post history on the Sudomod forums. I've been an admin there for a few years.

Is this one of the designs that doesn't require a voltage regulator between the mod and the mainboard?

This is literally Borti’s latest board. It’s not impacted by the noisy 3.3v line.

Awesome. We submitted the order for the 20 kits today. I'll post updates when we get them.

Fab just sent my partner pictures of the boards and ribbons. We should have these very soon.

The kits are in! I had an opportunity to test one of them and it’s working great. Helder is going to have them available for sale on his site: https://www.heldergametech.com/

No problem, at least these are available without alot of DIY solder to populate the boards or ordering from over seas which at this time is rather slow.
