Haven't read this thread for a while, but I'm out. Theres no point in joining with the BB Team, and you guys act like it will become famous. Is Selling it on Digikey even realality? I think not. Seriously, I'm done with this. The whole project seems to be impossible.

...When did he say there was wrong with the BlackBox team? He's saying it's stupid that "WEST" or what not is [wanting] to join with BlackBox.

And typamc95, I doubt any of this is going to become reality. I mean - Digikey?!

You need to be able to produce tens of thousands for Digikey to sell them, anyways.
I'd imagine right now you wish you were a cuttlefish...

Basically your trying to rip off BlackBox by taking their crap and claming it's your own, by literally ripping apart their consoles and replacing a few things? If I was you i'd help Sameguy with his project instead, I would help him if I knew anything about what he's doing, but I don't.

I say everyone stops fighting and joins the only group who have actually done anything! As we stand now, a bunch of people want to make a console, most of them have no idea what they are doing, a few of them know what they want- and that is a console identical to the Blackbox, and only one has actually produced anything!

As far as I see it, only iam7805 knows how to go about designing and building a console. Any new attempts will either be A) a ripoff of his work, or B) a ripoff of the Hydra- until I am proven otherwise (and sorry if others contributed significantly to the Blackbox of whom I'm not aware).

What's your battle plan then? Do you have a line up of chips that you'll use? What kind of graphics are you aiming to make, 8, 16, or 32bit? I'm curious as I could come out and say the same thing, but I don't see any substance in what your said. I'd like to hear your plans.
