- Very happy to announce that GP2040-CE works on the Nintendo Switch 2!
- I recently acquired some commercial hand sanitizer units and immediately saw the potential to turn them into arcade machines. Many hours of modelling and a few rolls of filament later I have one done! This one waits for the #SeaOfStars launch from @SabotageQc #gp2040ce
- Here is the updated NFC loading system in action. Need to adjust the timing a bit but I’m quite happy with it. This will also auto-switch profiles in GP2040-CE based on game launched.
00:00 - The GP2040-CE team is happy to announce fighting game PS5 support via passthrough authentication is being added to the firmware. Passthrough authentication allows you to connect any official PS4 fightstick to your GP2040-CE device through a USB breakout add-on. 1/7
- Presenting the Open_Core0 Featuring - Input mode slider - SOCD slider - Tournament lock - Profile switching - Function layer - OLED display - Dual LEDs per button - Player LEDs Plexi top with an aluminum plate on the bottom + foam. Coming to GitHub soon! Fully open source :)
- Introducing the very first prototype of the OSAS - The Open Source Arcade Stand! Fightsticks are cool but nothing beats the feeling of sitting at an arcade machine. Arcade machines are big and heavy though, so not everyone has space for them. Updates as I build it out more!
- Today I am very happy to introduce the RP2040 Basic Breakout Board! The GP2040-CE project has always been focused on making gaming more accessible. To do that we needed a cheap embedded board. At just $4.50 USD each on orders of 50+ we have done it! 1/5
- Have a 3D printer and want to make your own Fightstick case on the cheap? I've just uploaded a 6 part print to make your own at home! The STL files are easily editable with TinkerCAD. Massive thanks to @Dash_xx_Mash for the design ideas here. github.com/OpenStickCommu…
- I was also given an early copy of the upcoming U16 from @Haute42_ ! The U16 is the same size as the T series, has the same button style as the R series and has an injection molded bottom like the P series. With plexi and and art inserts this is a really cool unit.
- Today is the day! The Open Stick Modular (OSM) is officially live!!! Enjoy and remember that it is for Sanwa JLFs only currently. github.com/OpenStickCommu…
- For those new to GP2040-CE and Nintendo Switch / Switch 2: The existing Switch mode GP2040-CE works without issue on the Nintendo Switch 2. This is native Switch 2 compatibility with no need for an auth dongle, just connect and play! 1/3
- Meet the OSBLP! The Open Source Button - Low Profile allows you to use most Choc v2 switches to make your own low cost arcade buttons. This print will require supports! Coming soon to the GitHub repo.
- The GP2040-CE team is happy to announce the release of v0.7.12! Highlights are hall-effect support, X360 without a dongle and a new Switch Pro input mode. Tons of back end code changes and big fixes as well. You can check out a full change log here:
