Hi here are my Micro Acade Projects

Hi Everyone.
I do enjoy the Basic Fun Arcade classics in normal form....but I wanted to make them so much better :) and with a Raspberry Pi...I think I did :)

So I decided to take the Basic Fun Pac-Man, Space Invaders, DreamGear 200 in 1 and 300 in 1 and turn them into mini ARCADE units!








"Glen's Retro Show's Mini-Cade Project's"

Raspberry Pi Zero based
Basic Fun o1 Pac-Man (a first). 2.8"
Basic Fun o2 Space Invaders (a first). 2.8"
DreamGear 200 in 1 (a first). 2.4"
DreamGear 300 in 1 (a first). 2.4"
All cases kept looking as stock as possible.
2200mAh Li-ion batteries
(Can charge and use at same time).
Main power off switch
USB Stereo sound
N-Wi-Fi
2 free USB Ports
2.4" and 2.8" SPI TFT Screens
4/8 way joystick
2 fire buttons (more could be added)
Player 1 start button
Insert Quarter button
Safe Pi power off button
RetroPi v4.1

A very fun..And at time's fustrating project...But a good learning experience.
Right now just a learning experience, and New video coming soon to Glen's Retro Show.
