    Some small Update:
    - Changed the screens to some used 15.6 '' Notebook screens => not so heavy

    - rs232 for the Matrix Controller works now with some esp8266 (wemos D1) => you can switch between 3  Modes: 

       1. every screen shows fullscreen  

       2. every screen shows 1/4 of the screen (4 player split)

       3. screen 1 and 2 show half (top-botton)  of the screen, 3 and 4 fullscreen (2 Player horizontal split)

    - one prototype controller is done

    - updated design (with some Ikea furniture) to make the build easy an portable

    More Updates will come when the 4 Controllers are done and i need to install a hdmi mod to my N64, because the Signal is to Blurry (N64=>AV2HDMI=>Matrix Controller(input and output 1080p)=>old Notebook screen 1366x768) => the av or s-video output from the n64 is to blurry to come up with all this scaling...

    New Parts arived:

    N64 Extension Cords and 4rp2040 pro micro

    I flashed the pi picos with https://github.com/pdaxrom/usb2n64-adapter and tested everything on the real thing. Works like a charm.

    Next step will be the N64 AV to hdmi converter to use the Video output of the N64 with the 2x2 Matrix controller.
