Description How To More Details
 
Meggy Jr RGB is a handheld platform for developing your own pixel-scale video games. Featuring a fully addressable 8x8 RGB LED matrix display, big fat comfy button switches, customizable handles, a lo-fi audio transducer, and even 8 extra LEDs for lives, score, ammo, or level, Meggy Jr RGB is a little kit you won't want to miss. Meggy Jr is fast, programmable, open source and hackable. And fun. Meggy Jr RGB is a little sister to our Peggy and Peggy 2 LED display kits, and was designed with a different focus-- less soldering, more pixels in your palms. The 8x8 RGB matrix display provides a whole lot of pixels (192 LED elements), and the 8 auxiliary LEDs bring the grand total up to 200. The six tough buttons have excellent click-feel, and multiple programming interfaces let you take control of exactly what you're playing with. Soldering Required. You'll also need a USB-TTL Cable to program it, available here.

An Exceptional Product September 1, 2009
Reviewer: Wesley C from Washington  
The Meggy has a lot going for it. The included instructions are exceptional, the organization is very good, and the plastic shell is great for portability.

Two small improvements that could be made would be improving the battery attachment method and adding automatic power input switching (currently it requires moving a jumper).

That said, I couldn't be happier with mine, and the instructions enabled me to put it together without a hitch.
