KIT-14007 Datasheet, PDF (1/1 Pages) List of Unclassifed Manufacturers – SparkFun PiRetrocade
SparkFun PiRetrocade
KIT-14007 ROHS
Description: Do you own a Raspberry Pi? Have you always wanted to use it to set up your very
own gaming station? The SparkFun PiRetrocade provides you with all the control hardware and
arcade software you need to play almost any retro arcade and console video game! Included in
this kit are five concave arcade buttons, a joystick, an SD card preloaded with Porta Pi, and all of
the connective tissue. The only thing you need to provide is your own Raspberry Pi (we
recommend the RPi3) and a screen to play your games on! We even designed the box the
SparkFun PiRetrocade comes in to be converted into a custom game pad. Just cut out the
designated points with the included utility knife and you’re ready to play!
The image on the SD card is called Porta Pi Aracde and is a collage of several programs compiled
by Ryan Bates at Retro Built Games. The image contains RetroPie, Emulation Station, RetroArch
and Retrogame. The only thing you need to worry about is powering your Pi, attaching a monitor
through an HDMI cable, and loading up your desired games.
Other than the Raspberry Pi 3 (and a means to power it), you’ll need wire strippers and crimp tools
to assemble your PiRetrocade, as well as a monitor, HDMI cable, and speakers or headphones.
