Ars Technica: Nintendo’s Switch successor is already in third-party devs’ hands, report claims https://arstechnica.com/?p=1957822 #Tech #arstechnica #IT #Technology #GameConsole #Nintendo #Gaming #Switch #oled #lcd

The new EONE1602 driver in yauclib can print text on 1602-type lcd displays in four bit and eight bit data mode. The output in the picture is produced by the following lines of code:

display.initConnection(true);
display.configure(true);
display.printAtPosition(0, 0, "Hello world!");
Microcontroller::wait(2000);
display.printAtPosition(1,2, "Ready!");

Some display features still need to be implemented:

Excuse me, #Art #nerds, when it comes to #digitalart on #lcd screens, what colors are not possible to replicate? I would have thought even just 8-bit range would allow for bright colors like neon orange.
You know. The orange found on a particular Switch controller?

So I did a modicum of research and found the color. Apparently it's in the range of 0xFC5D40. Red. I hate it. I hit that color range several times it it was never neon bright enough. Ugh.
