Most of my projects have project details and build instructions on GitHub.
I recommend starting out there if you've got a specific project in mind!
Cartridges
Nintendo Entertainment System (NES)
I currently offer cartridge options for Discrete Mappers, MMC1, and MMC3. View the tutorial on my main website for information on how to determine what board and mapper you will need!
Cartridges
Super Nintendo (SNES)
The Basic UV board can be used as a parts transfer board for some games, but is also a great, cheap option for making games up to 2MB in size. The Advanced UV board supports up to 8MB and also adds a multicart option. The Flash boards are reconfigurable and reflashable, but require a higher skill in soldering. Check the wiki on the SNES cart repository for more information!
Cartridges
Game Boy (DMG), Game Boy Color
I have a wide variety of mapper types for DMG/GBC games. The type of mapper you need will be determined by what game you are making. If you are unsure, you can look up your game on this website. I also offer some really neat multicarts that switch the game when you press in on the cartridge. They are one of my favorite designs.
Consoles
Game Boy Upgrades
Up your soldering skills and make a novel Game Boy system with my circuit-level recreation Game Boy projects! The DMGC takes a Game Boy Color and puts it into an original Game Boy shell. The MGBC does the same thing for the Game Boy Pocket shell. And the Game Boy Enhance fixes many issues inherent in modded GBA systems.
Upgrade your soldering skills!
My own personal soldering journey is told in the timeline of circuit boards I have developed - from starting out with through-hole parts on a SNES cartridge, all the way to the QFN leadless packages on the Game Boy Enhance. I've got projects for all skill levels.
You too can expand your skills and make some really cool things along the way!
