I have such a soft spot for PICs, specifically the 16F84

20 odd years ago when I didn't know any better and work was boring I built a universal remote control - and put it in a PSX controller case. This was all coded in assembler which I still have, programmed with a DIY adapter that ran off a parallel port. So much fun. I used this for a few years.

The video was made earlier in the year, I was curious if it still worked.... not so shabby.

Version 2 had a touch screen. That's still lying around somewhere.
