Game Boy Advance: Bluetooth HID Gamepad

Description

This is a circuit that I designed in 2021 to be able to use the Game Boy Advance as a gamepad for PC. The idea is not mine but Shyri Villar‘s. I only designed a custom PCB for the Nintendo wireless adapter casing.

In theory, the circuit should work, as it follows Shyri Villar’s schematic. However, I never managed to flash its code (lack of experience to do so and difficulties compiling it). (I successfully flashed a blink code without any issues)
