Hi

I have been working on a ESP32-P4 handheld, it uses an existing shell/buttons etc and essentially a drop in replacement. The P4 now powers through MD and SNES, but does still struggle on some GBA.

Theres some pics in the target and the guide on Instructables should hopefully be live soon.

Hopefully you're happy to accept this device, no worries if not, I'm happy to maintain it this end.

Thanks

Hey, I saw your project featured on hackaday! Very cool device indeed! I'll properly review the PR this weekend but at first glance it all looks good, as usual.

Btw do you think you could share your theme files? I've been looking for a reason to add support for multiple built-in themes and yours is quite nice! As a zip or perhaps you can create another PR to add it to themes folder.

Hi

Oh so it is, looks very AI written tho but still cool. I've only really posted it on Instructables and they didnt deem it Feature worthy which usually means its not very easy to come across but I assume they saw it on there.

Let me know if any adjustments are required to the target, technically it wont currently build on dev unless the battery ADC is disabled in config but I've left it enabled for when the battery ADC issue with IDF 5.x gets resolved.

If it'll help with RetroGo development, I'm happy to send you one.

As for the theme, totally happy to share. Its been on my fork for a while (in releases under VMU) currently its got a placeholder for GBA, but the system ordering doesnt properly follow if GBA is enabled, I see in in dev that GBA has been enabled by default currently so if this is likely to stay as is, I can update the theme to properly follow the order and do a PR. I'll attach the current one with the GBA placeholder
