Build a Tiny Desktop Arcade with Raspberry Pi + ATMEGA32U4 + RetroPie

[@9wattcat]

Is there a way to can buy this in a kit form (or atleast the wood panels)? I'd love to have one.

[@RetroBuiltGames]

The model shown is a kit that is currently its final stages of 'getting things sorted'. It will be available soonish, but not likely until 2018. Other DIY kits are available here: www.retrobuiltgames.com/diy-kits-shop/

[@retro8087]

Thanks Ryan for the video. Definitely looking forward to picking this kit up when you have it available.

[@ElektroPR]

Well, its already 2018. Where I can buy this kit?

[@camrocian7230]

2019 now :/

[@Nashemon]

@@camrocian7230 Pretty sure this is the Porta Pi Arcade Nano. Check the website to buy the kit.

[@BrainSlugs83]

I love that you made a dust cover for it, that's great. Most software /electronics nerds don't sew, but I love that you bring that skill to the table for this project. That's really awesome. :)

[@deanslegos1990]

The website I found gave me a flawless link. Your making the Internet a better place good sir!

[@jon_raymond]

Thanks for sharing this awesome build. Really enjoyed it. Also lol at the fist shake. We've all been there.

[@falcidi]

Beautiful work Ryan.

[@jojuXVI]

Abolutely beautiful arcade, and awesome video :D

[@captainoccy3373]

Been checking out your channel after finding it on here this morning! Instant subscribe! The level of finish on your cabinets is amazing! You clearly love what you do! I'm currently modding an ION Icade into a raspberry pi bartop at the moment so these projects amaze me! Seriously nice work! So much want!

[@star_dax]

Really good build! Thank you for sharing the idea and the code for the arduino. Greetings

[@L4cky82]

Solid work, very impressive! I would like to make the same (similar) but I lack the tools, space and ability to complete such a project.

[@kluzz]

A much cheaper alternative to a $6 32u4 dev board is to use a raspberry ip GPIO joystick driver. Should cost about $0, and it also saves you some space.

[@HoshikuzuGaming]

Too amazing!👏👏👏

[@unseenasian132]

Now this is s great design its small yea but that's the point and its also got authentic controls even thought the design of the machine is small. And the screen. Oh mine is big. Keep up the great work ma

[@toolzshed]

lovely design!

[@Sayajiin2]

Wow loved the video so much ! Wish I had those skills :D

[@ronaldopereira1869]

amazing work!

[@jermzii]

I would use a 5A power supply, with all of those peripherials

[@Charliemmafan]

Amazing job WOW!

[@Swanseaguy1979]

Loved this video, liked and subscribed. What printer are you using please?

[@ce373]

Man, absolutely awesome, so clean and neat finished project! How much, where do you sell these!!!?

[@RetroBuiltGames]

thanks. I don't sell them anymore but some of the designs are open source now.

[@hurry8927]

Can we buy a completely assembled unit like this my friend? You’re amazing btw😄

[@rdot980]

This video makes me want a CNC machine.

[@tomypower4898]

Robert Thomas Yes....

[@anyamante2681]

I love it can you make some again

[@robinlewis1975]

That is so cool .... omg 💕 I love them

[@isocubesoftware2713]

Thanks for another great video. In the code, there doesn't seem to be anything that prevents one to hold down the button. Maybe it is in the games themselves, but it would be nice to have something that only returns one keypress when a key is pressed and held down?

[@creativeforgery]

Excellent job!

[@R1Arcades]

You are an inspiration!

[@bartglez7920]

it is possible to program more buttons in this case 9 buttons for games that use 6 buttons.

[@thump5252]

Nice work, what printer and paper type did you us, I would love to print my own graphics and build one of these.

[@sallerc]

Nice build! What's the name of the board @ 12:12? Could really use one. Thanks.

[@BillyBatsonMarvel]

Bro?! You should start your own company selling these units, there's a nice size demand for them.

[@robinlewis1975]

What size and type of monitor is that ... it looks really small

[@Lorenzo88C]

Where i can buy the wood panels (i've the 7" rasp monitor)

[@ElektroPR]

Its already 2018!!! Where I can buy this kit?

[@albey1816]

Great stuff - Now where do you buy the LCD Moniters from? - Quite a few people have already asked this with no answer, so it would be nice if you could tell us.

[@RetroBuiltGames]

Search this on aliexpress "10.1 LCD Display Screen Monitor Remote Driver Control Board 2AV HDMI-Compatible VGA For Lattepanda,Raspberry Pi"

[@albey1816]

@@RetroBuiltGames Thanks Ryan.

[@Burnerzcrew]

I Wish i could buy a kit. The nano or the classic. I really want to build one. Any plans to release the design files, if you don't sell it anymore? Maybe you could sell the design files.

[@RetroBuiltGames]

maybe.

[@effeggi561]

is there a way to build this for two players? I would need the cabinet to keep this size but for two players, both joystick and buttons on the front....

[@RetroBuiltGames]

yes. check my 2player cabinet build videos

[@AMVayanefan]

Love the video but what do you use for a printer and paper? Seems to be a trade secret.

[@RetroBuiltGames]

Cannon IPF printer. High gloss photo paper

[@graphicsgod]

I love it and I want a kit of this!! But can I change the design slightly?? Like I gotta have a light up marquee!! And can you do one were the LCD is rotated 90 degrees with a larger LCD?? Otherwise I want!!

[@RetroBuiltGames]

[@graphicsgod]

Ryan Bates Awesome!! How do I order?? I clicked around, but didn't see anything.. And I like it, it's almost exactly what I'm looking for, but I need it wider for 6 button arcade fighting games!

[@hereforducks]

Yo will you continue selling full kits in the future? Really need one here in Philippines

[@RetroBuiltGames]

Not sure. Global supply chain issues have ruined my margins on these kits.

[@EricCastle91]

Do you have a video like this for the new version of the two player kit? I saw one where you were working on a larger sized 2 player but it looked fairly different. Thanks

[@kpikid]

Why not use the Gpio pins for the arcade controls?

[@tu_caminoalaplenitud]

Which is the software name for to create the parts? Thanks!

[@RetroBuiltGames]

inkscape

[@ElektroPR]

Well, its already February 2018! Where is my kit? I wan't one!!!! Please I begggggggg.

[@chadzero]

The code for the microcontroller / ardunio seems to be lost - is it possible to have this put back on the site or links to a similar one, keen to program my own!

[@RetroBuiltGames]

better version here github.com/MickGyver/DaemonBite-Arcade-Encoder

[@chadzero]

@@RetroBuiltGames Thanks for the link!

[@ElektroPR]

Is this kit already available here: www.retrobuiltgames.com/diy-kits-shop/mini-arcade-kits/porta-pi-nano/? Or is the above link for a different arcade cabinet?

[@gerardjitsu]

Hello Friend. Excellent video, I have a question. Does any Raspberry run the SNK games? (KOF, Streetfighter, Marvel vs. Capcom, etc.) Or can I use another cheaper interface? I appreciate it a lot. 👍

[@edwindavid8815]

Gerard Mushin you can add all the games you want from neo geo, arcade (fba & mame), and even PlayStation 1 or lower

[@RC-go2kl]

Where do you buy your lcd screens from?

[@retro-junkie5741]

Turned out very nice. Couple questions though.. Why not just use a zero-delay encoder for the interface on buttons and joystick? Also the Xin-MO works fine out of the box with RaspPi. Can you add a back lit marquee? Almost a perfect build IMO. Again, great job. I'm almost done with a special "portable" version of an arcade myself. Though screen is 15" 4:3 with 15watt stereo system using controllers only (at this point). Hope to have mine up by Jan 2018. Good work bro.

[@RetroBuiltGames]

Thanks! I have a couple other videos of arcades with backlit marquees and all that jazz. Check them out if you'd like.

[@doz3r943]

Odd placement of speakers Wonder how it sounds

[@gc_mini]

amazing 🤩

[@SidebandSamurai]

Great video. Wish i could get one😢

[@RetroBuiltGames]

You can build this one! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnKqh2h-mpWZa9k

[@leokaiser264]

where do you get the monitors from?

[@xRedstreak]

is there a way for me to know if i need to daisey chain the ground for the buttons, because ive watched a lot of videos and half them do it and the others don't but they all work in the end. This is the PCB i bought, would i need to do it for the Happ style buttons www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01C5J5AJO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

[@ninjaastarr92]

What computer program did you use to design it? How do you get the wood in those shapes & what kind of paper is that? Like how the hell did you design it?

[@tomypower4898]

King Nai oh yes!

[@thump5252]

Anyone know what type of paper was used to print and stick the artwork?, I really want to print my own graphics, currently I have a Canon IPF 605 Large format inkjet printer, any recommendations will be appreciated

[@RetroBuiltGames]

It's adhesive backed vinyl with a semi-gloss finish. I wish I could tell you the brand of the paper, but the box was thrown out and the maker space that was holding it went bankrupt.

[@BADWOLF-ci6pl]

What size monitor

[@AnalogX64]

Great video and build. What is the 3D package that is being used?

[@RetroBuiltGames]
