+retroclouds Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 For the purpose of science I've opened up my Pyuuta Jr. game console and took some pictures. It's quite incredible how small the board is. Also there aren't that many components as you can tell. Apparently there are multiple revisions of the board, as this is revision B 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+retroclouds Posted October 18, 2020 Author Share Posted October 18, 2020 What would it take to create a new low-cost homebrew version of the board? Would be crazy to have an arcade machine with a pyuuta jr. board and custom ROM in there. Also note the way the "keyboard" is connected would it allow for a full keyboard to be connected?

+acadiel Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Interesting how they still have a -5V rail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Based on your serial number @retroclouds, yours is actually a relatively early production Pyuuta Jr. The highest serial numbers I've seen for a Pyuuta Jr were in the 22,000 range, and started with a ZVRV prefix. Note also that there is a tape adapter for the Pyuuta Jr as well, although it is rarely seen in the wild (I've only ever seen three of them sold). I probably need to open mine up to see what is inside the cartridge. . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
