this thread is too promissing to be true. allow me to stand back till anything, just anything, is confirmed and released, then i ll applaud..

in the meantime if you are serious - the homepage of georg braun who created gba1k and consorts is here:

he has released documentation what concerns at least part of his projects, i dont know how much exactly. but you can contact him.

two things:
there is an improved redesign of thylacine underway already:

and another batch of subways is going to hit the stores:

sorry forums in english you will have to use translation services.

btw, why replicate the thylacine 1:1? you just waste the board space, and it costs, try to make it as small as possible.

I have one of these boards and have never gotten around to assembling it. Any idea of how many of these projects ever got completed?


no. a rather small precentage of people who bought such board will be realistically able to build a working system around it. think of technical expertise and equipment necessary. thats likely the reason why georg doesnt want to release bigger batches. because the amount of work and support after the release is not to handle by single person and beyond that generates no return. i have doubts if just a single of the few existing gba1k has been assembled working without extensive help from georg.
