What is the Fuze 840 breadboard?
-
As I do live streams and videos for kids to learn code and electronics (adults are welcome and present), I'm curious to understand what is the Fuze 840 socket breadboard I found on the store.
I know what a breadboard is, but where is the interaction with Fuze4?
-
I think it's a leftover from when Fuze was a Raspberry Pi based computer.
-
Whoa. What is that doing there?
-
This was for the original Fuze product. A cased Raspberry Pi with a breakout board that shipped with a copy of Fuze Basic (as was) https://www.recantha.co.uk/blog/?p=11095
It is no longer in production but I have a few!
-
My brain knew it could be linked to Nintendo but my heart was hoping a miracle ;)
Is there still a Fuze Basic on Pi or did it disappeared with the full product?
-
Well I might have a copy around somewhere but I have no idea if it will still work. It is not really supported anymore
-
One day, just one day... we might get the Switch interface with Arduino's / Raspberry Pi's and the like.
The black 840 socket breadboard is lovely by-the-way and we're the only company ever to sell them. it was a custom order. It is identical to any other breadboard aside that is is much cooler to look at!
-
It is the only choice for doing that knight rider led chaser thing.
What’s that ‘+£2.00’ thing? And are there any physical fuze4 books for sale? Would they be out of date due to patches?
-
With the way Fuze is now I say it would be excellent to re visit the Raspberry Pi. I would buy a Raspberry Pi just to use Fuze on it lol.

@JMM161437 Wow, what an idea: a Fuze game console for your pocket.
-
@spikey Also known as the Nintendo Switch.
In all seriousness, it would be cool to see the Fuze4 coding language come to some other platforms. Even if the Switch and it weren't cross compatible, it would be neat
-
@Retrocade_media I still feel its even cooler, in the size of a matchbox, only an HDMI, 2 -3 USB, and sound output. And maybe including the board to attach.
-
@spikey Oh yea absolutely, I was just making a cheeky little joke.
Fuze4Raspi when?
