>Come up with stupid idea to make Arduino mash random buttons on Gameboy as poor man's portable TwitchPlays games
>Solder wires and make simple random sketch
>Works okay except for resets
>Realize the delay between a button being released and pressed is too long
>Gameboy thinks buttons being held simultaneously
>Fix issue
>Works well, but game pauses way too often to be useful even for random presses
>Tinker with "BlinkWithoutDelay" sketch and make my own that still mashes the other buttons, but presses Start every 7 seconds
>Compiles on first try
>Works great
>Dipshit Arduino names self in Pokemon Yellow, manages to wander Pallet Town and even saves the game
>Anons help with power supply ideas
>mfw shit is working out
