From the project
An Arduino Uno R4 WiFi shield (KiCad project) for dumping DMG/GBC cartridges — especially the Game Boy Camera — and printing to the Game Boy Pocket Printer.
An Arduino Uno R4 WiFi shield (KiCad project) for dumping DMG/GBC cartridges — especially the Game Boy Camera — and printing to the Game Boy Pocket Printer.
With an Arduino Uno R4 WiFi (5V logic, RA4M1) this shield lets you:
- Read the ROM header of DMG/GBC cartridges - Dump the Game Boy Camera's SRAM (128 KB of photos) to a .sav file - Print images to the Pocket Printer over the link cable
