On Reddit, HolyChipmunk wrote, “Y’all thought the GameCube keyboard was a joke.” The creator’s modded controller was first reported by PCGamesNand seems to be inspired by another creator’s attempt. When it comes to the basics, HolyChipmunk’s GameCube beauty has an 18-year-old Nintendo plastic casing and comes mounted with an aluminum tray.
HolyChipmunk’s edition is more compact and, of course, a lot cuter. Not only does the creator add Vilebloom keys in, but he also replaced the older controller buttons with appropriate Vilebloom equivalents. So, everything looks new.
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
