In this video we build "The Everything Console". A DIY retro console capable of playing just about every game released before the year 2000.

It's not a moral gray area to install ROM's. The people who made, marketed, printed, and distributed the inital game would make no money if you bought a brand new copy (if that was even possible) today. The legal issue is the rights holder not getting to make money off the free distribution of unlicensed ROM's and thats a debate to have, but morally there is no issue with keeping games alive and playble.

The ROM owners don't allow you to buy these games anymore. They basically throw them away and force you to buy the newest hardware and associated games. They could all release their own retro game console but they wont and make it multi platform compatible.

I think if I end up doing a follow up to this, I will likely move away from the RaspberryPi. As powerful as it is, it's still limited by the fact that its a low cost device. There's a pretty hard ceiling on the amount of output you can get out of a RaspberryPi. It would likely be a windows based PC or at least an X86 PC.

Unfortunetly, the config and setup of the Raspberry Pi would be an entire video by itself and to be honest, I feel that was not the scope of the video. Also, no offense @Zac Builds, but there are dozens of videos already out there that would probably provide a better walkthrough of RetroPi. I would just search KZbin for "RetroPi setup and config" if you want a detailed setup video.

But it was already assembled, and sleek with active cooling and an extra board that moved the power, audio, and hdmi to the back by the rest of the I/O and turned the hdmi to full size.

One note re: drilling through PCB holes, While there may not be visible traces I believe the Pi4 has a 6-layer PCB, so there could be traces near the hole that you can't see. I'm don't know enough about how this might hurt something, but NZXT had a huge recall of one of their cases due to a fire hazard having to do with roughed-up holes in a layered PCB, and a screw touching multiple layers, causing a short and a fire.

Sure other systems may have beaten it with sheer polygon count, but a Dreamcast game was as recognizable from it's screenshots as a N64 game was. Everything was super clean, and crisp and sharp, even on old CRT screens. In fact, it was the complete opposite of the N64 lol.

Nice project, really enjoyed your video. A small tip that I use for really small wires that you need to strip, if all you have is a razor knife or box cutter blade...Lay the wire on a hard surface (preferrably one that you don't mind scratching, just in case lol) then put light force of the blade down on the wire and just roll the wire forward. After a little practice, you will get the feel for how much pressure to put on the knife, and it peels off the sheathing quite nicely. Anyway, thanks again for the nice vid, and I'm looking forward to part 2!

That a great job you did there! It looks really nice! And makes me wish I had the wood working skills to do that to my Pi. I would love to see a part 2 of this video were you upgrade the build! If I may add you also should consider adding some mesh for the grills to control some dust from entering the case. Though keep in mind the this mesh will at some point get a build-up over time so it should be removable. Oh, and one more thing, I am sure the magnets are strong enough to hold the case closed, but you should add some registers keys to help it from sliding off. Please keep up the great work! And the videos coming! I enjoy watching them! Love ya Zac, see you in the next one! 😁

Thanks James! I've got a similar setup to what you describing on my desk PC and to be honest, I think it's more trouble than its worth. The mesh just ends up getting clogged and really restricts airflow, so you have to clean it very frequently if you want to maintain maximum performance. With something like this that's only going to be run for a few hours here and there in relatively dust free enviroment I'm not overly worried about it. I can just blast it out with compressed every couple of years and I think that should keep it running smoothly. Good call on the registers though, I'll definitely keep that in mind for the next video. Cheers man.

If I'm going to make one of my Raspberry PIs into a dedicated retro console I will definitely use an external SSD or get an M.2 shield for it. It should make the PI more responsive and handle the random read/write better.

For the crimping on the small wires at 14:03, you could use a finger nail clipper and it could make it much easier and less scary

Haha sorry Gavin, I dont have any plans to mass produce these and sell them right now. It was just a fun experiment for me. If you want something similar there are many "off the shelf" raspberry pi cases you can buy and whip something like this is up in an afternoon tho. Cheers man

You should make MK.2 for your consol. First of all - Really educational And second of all - I'm from 90s, so I really love the multi retro console build. Hope to see a new design and upgrade.

Some people might yell at me but when I strip really thin wires like that I use a lighter and burn the plastic coating off them, it's really easy and effective.

You should definitely try your hand at making a Wii portable. The Wii’s motherboard can be trimmed down considerably and because it’s official hardware it emulates all of those games you want to play on yours and more from it’s era. I think it’s definitely the sequel that would be fun to make.

You are correct, as a PCB designer with nearly 10 years of work experience, I can attest that mounting holes have a lot of clearance. Having said that a better method is to insert a pin in the hole and use a hammer to mark the wood with it, remove the pcb and then drill out holes

If you do a part 2 to this video look for an m.2 upgrade. I used an argon one case(it's on amazon) for my retropi and I've got 2 TB of storage available. If you go this route make sure your m.2 drive is a SATA drive and not an NVMe drive as the raspberry pi is not compatible with NVMe. You can boot directly off the M.2 drive, it's faster, and is way less likely to suddenly die. The argon one m.2 board is sold separately from the case so you could get that and integrate it into your system.

Oh that would be fun! I think if I do a part 2 version of this build (pretty confident I will at this point) I'm going to make it an X86 based system, and I will almost certainly be using NVMe storage for it. Good to know that you can run them with the Pi though, even if its only sata.

First! And I love this video! Retropie is amazing, especially because I love playing retro games! I might need to get another raspberry pi (if I don’t have enough already haha)! And that custom case looks amazing! Just another reason for me to get a CNC!

Thanks Arpad! It's not even a complicated carve, didnt you say you had a CNC at your school? Maybe you could carve the parts there and then assemble them at home. Thanks for watching man!

@@ZacBuilds They do have one, but unfortunately, it’s almost always being used… does inventables easel work with other CNCs? I was taught to do the CAM manually on autodesk inventor, like programming the tool paths and set up the work coordinate system. It seems a lot more simple on easel!
