RP Arcade-1

[mheyman]

Hey everyone!

I recently finished up work on a little gaming console I made with the help of the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B.

Here’s a list of some of the features:

• USB port for second player support.
• HDMI video output.
• Rechargable lithium ion battery.
• Power supply port.
• Built in WiFi.
• Low battery LED light.
• Full battery LED light.
• Power LED light.
• Safe shutdown button.
• Japanese arcade joystick and buttons.
• Made from American Walnut.

And of course some pictures. The links underneath go to some higher resolution images.

Hi Res

I am currently working on an in-depth tutorial on how you can build your own. Let me know what you guys think! This is my first time working with the Raspberry Pi, electronics and woodworking, so I’m still learning a lot.

best build I’ve seen! I bet it’s got some weight to it also, as a lot of the sticks I’ve used seem too light as they’re not connected to a heavy arcade machine. this seems a practical alternative!

Thanks for the replies!

Yeah it is a little heavy haha. The weight isn’t too bad though, it does make it feel sturdy.
