Build a Retro Gaming Console with a Raspberry Pi 5

[@mysteriousshield233]

I did so much homework (raspi, retropie, github) before I found this video. I wish I had have found it sooner. The only benefit to the amount of work that I've done to this point is that I can verify that this is really really good. If I were starting out, I would start here. Subscribed, advised my geek kid to sub also. Thank you Stephen.

Excellent Raspberry Pi 5 walk-through! Clear and concise with some nice tips and tricks too. Thanks so much for this!

[@herbs275]

🤔

[@ckebz]

Thanks for making this, I went from not knowing what a raspberry pi was to building my own home arcade thanks to your video. Thanks again!

[@jonmagee1778]

Thank you for the video - I learned so much I never understood before from other videos. I'm excited for the retro gaming to come!

[@gregoryrousseau5155]

Agreed! This is one of the best guides I have found for Raspberry Pi 5 Batocera setup. As a Pi-noob, this video is just what I needed.

[@GalacticGooseGaming]

OK, this is awesome - Can't wait to try to build this!

[@OCDRex11]

Been a Retropie guy for over a decade. Not sure why I am so dedicated to it either?! Oh, I know why, Arcade Punks always has the images and I rarely made my own, lol. Man, sooooo many images I have lol. I might just try Batocera. Great vid!

[@ArtisansAlliance]

Thanks!

[@heyokawolf13]

Any updates on the really spiffy wood pie case?

[@WR3ND]

My complements on the whole aesthetic of everything you've got going on there. Cheers.

[@WR3ND]

I dropped in on the list for that Pi case. Looks awesome.

[@tuanphan1712]

Really really awesome and precious instructions. I'm so glad to find this video. Thanks a lot!!

[@PovertyHelping]

Thanks so much for this favorite online classes. you are the best teacher

[@nikobellic570]

Imagine your 9 year old self receiving this back in the day! Sensory overload

[@ISLAInstruments]

straight to the point, appreciate this! thank you.

[@snowman925]

This is the lost treasure video ❤ Thanks for the specific details for batocera And what batocera system can do It’s great bro

[@TheJomad]

Thanks for the all the info!

[@mouhabuntu]

Nice video, well done ✅👍 and cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

[@robertpettersson8231]

Case looks great!

[@ArtisansAlliance]

Thank you!!!

[@themdg]

Thanks for posting this excellent video. Subbed. Maybe I'll get brave with the RPI5. :)

[@MatimusTheDestroyer]

Anyone know what options the pi5 has for video output? I want to run component to a CRT

[@epsileth]

Have an argon one v3 case, works well with batocera. Waiting for an official retropie image sometime this month, so I can switch from micro sd to nvme, and install the argon case fan script.

[@marteenleon]

Great video! There's no better way to time travel than playing retro games. Anyone else having problems with the N64 games? They are not loading with me. Cheers!

[@DianaMJoice]

This is a great video and sorting out support video. Do you know if the LBP2 in disk form runs on this system? Or only the network version?

[@zlink5982]

Overall helpful video, but I do not believe the Xbox Core controller linked in the vid is compatible via a bluetooth connection. I'd advise against purchasing that.

[@TSPH1992]

I got a 64 GB micro sd. I hope that does the trick for the beginning

[@huntingresonance]

Great video, very clear and well produced - but it was really distracting that you were reading a cue slightly above the camera. It felt like you were never making eye contact and your eyes were scanning left and right noticeably. I normally wouldn't mention something like this on someone's video, but you've clearly went to a lot of bother to make the video look great that this feels like an avoidable distractor! Thanks again for the info and keep up the awesome work.

[@ArtisansAlliance]

Thanks! Yeah, I'm still getting used to talking on camera so I put an iPad with the script on top of my lens. I was hoping no one noticed it but I'm getting better with practice 😅

[@zeus_2001]

@@ArtisansAllianceTake your script, break it into keywords only, use the keywords as a guide only, fill the words in naturally from memory. Your speech will sound more natural and it will eliminate the eye contact problem. Great video! Thanks!

[@DaisyHollowBooks]

I’m married to a software developer. Eye contact is overrated.

[@PaperAndOrigami]

Do you have any idea why Mario Kart Double Dash has a blue tint to it?

[@SecureCODEacamdemy]

How about installing retropie or anyother os on any random phone

[@OldBiscuitYT]

Hey man, I'm having trouble playing GameCube games. They're telling me there's no save file on the memory card slot and won't let me go any further. I also can't open the quick menu (hotkey + a) any ideas?

[@ArtisansAlliance]

My guess is that you don't have the GameCube bios file. You can launch games without it but theres some weird stuff that'll happen without it. You can check with the bios checker in the menu. For pulling up the quick menu with hotkey + a, that only works for systems that use emudeck. For GameCube emulator settings, you have to change them inside the Batocera menu for the system.

[@OldBiscuitYT]

@@ArtisansAlliance nice one yeah actually I think I did see a message about the bios file but chose to be lazy and ignore it 😂 thanks man I'll give that a try

[@gaboaaa23]

hey, what is the pro and con of batocera vs retropie? I heard that you only can install retropie with manual installation and that part scares me cause im not into raspberry pi language writing.

[@adriansbrush3364]

I want to get started with a Pi5 and use is for mediacenter and retro gaming, is it wise to put in a M2 drive or is the sd drive where the OS lives enough

[@techwiththomas5690]

Do I have any chance to achieve PS2 emulation with this? If not, what kind of a system would I need to be able to emulate up to PS2 games?

[@nikobellic570]

Windows intel n100. Stick with the platform with the greatest software compatibility. The raspberry pi is useful if you want a tiny, tiny, low powered system to tuck away under a TV or inside and arcade machine

[@techwiththomas5690]

@@nikobellic570 Thanks so much man

[@gerold55]

Any idea if ps2 works somewhat ok?

[@salx8514]

I tried Batocera and it wasn't as optimized as RetroPie (through manual install). It's been working fine, so I hope there's an official image soon.

[@DaisyHollowBooks]

I really appreciate this video.

[@tychoordo3753]

batocera just had display issues for me making it unusable. Retropie worked fine

[@demonprincess5634]

what about LaunchBox that what i use.

[@BOBBYGrijalva-x9o]

I've been asleep way to long 🐸 Wtf all the options are in the gaming world dang need a aspirin

[@shawnwade302]

If you "just unplug your pi" you run the risk of corrupting the SD card.

[@nikobellic570]

Apparently it rarely if ever happens on newer models

[@ashtonmcentire8729]

How would you even turn it off without unplugging it?

[@shawnwade302]

The same way you turn off your home computer you don't just unplug your home computer do you? You can program a shutdown script connected to a momentary button or in the software you hit the power off button and then once the computer has powered down you can unplug it or turn off the power to it

[@wric01]

Just buy the pi5 keyboard built in system: The Keyboard IS the Computer! (Pi 500) and put in the retropie sdcard. For geek adults that only have an hour or 2 to game, any more hours you overheat the system.

[@TheIegend27]

Batocera is way better than retropie
