"After debuting a matchbox-sized handheld called the Arduboy Mini and a banana-shaped version of the original Arduboy, creator Kevin Bates has announced a new model of Arduboy FX called the FX-C with some welcome upgrades and new color options. For the first time, the credit card-sized Arduboy now has a USB-C port for charging, syncing, and playing multiplayer games with a second device using an included USB-C cable, or any Thunderbolt 3 cable."
"The Arduboy FX-C's specs remain relatively basic with the same ATmega32u4 processor found on the Arduino Micro, a 128×64-pixel OLED screen that can only show white pixels - no grayscale or anti-aliasing - and six buttons. And while the Arduboy FX included enough storage to hold 200 preloaded games, the new FX-C expands that to accommodate 300 titles, making the open source handheld even more accessible for those who just want to use it to play games, and not dive into developing their own."
The Arduboy FX-C introduces a USB-C port for charging, syncing, and local multiplayer using the included USB-C or any Thunderbolt 3 cable. A Founder's edition with purple buttons is available now for $99, limited to 500 units, while a two-pack of 100 units is priced at $178. A Standard edition with green buttons will be sold on Amazon with free shipping. The FX-C retains the ATmega32u4 processor, a 128×64 OLED that displays white pixels only, and six buttons. Built-in storage grows from 200 to 300 preloaded games to improve accessibility for players.
