PiStation - A Raspberry Pi Emulation Console

[@josephpanfil]

Awesome work, really cool that you kept a PS1 out of a landfill as well.

[@PcCommand2]

I love how you've integrated the ps1 buttons and controller ports

[@colinbouwer185]

Me too bro, gonna try this at home 2

[@null2846]

Even though I was a little sad to see the PS1 gutted, I was very happy to see you kept the power button light functional.

[@breezypick]

That's really impressive. Keep up the good work!

[@jordanmillane9581]

Thats pretty sweet .. nice choice of case i think i might put four Pi' 2's inside a Xbox Original case :P cluster farm 16 core 4gb ram muhahah

[@dwighthunter6719]

I actually enjoyed his content.

[@SlothMcLazy]

Wonderful. I was thinking about doing handheld pi.

[@Shikaku11373]

Pretty awesome work.

[@DiyintheGhetto]

This is a Great Starter System to build something cool ans Expand on Thank you :)

[@conancho1737]

[@russianrings]

well done brother

[@GuardYourFlanks]

No Playstation emulation on a Playstation?

[@jacobgordon9447]

DarakuTenshi there is ps1 emulation

[@GuardYourFlanks]

I was just referring to there being no PS1 emulation on this specific system built. As he went through the video I didn't see it anyway.

[@jacobgordon9447]

DarakuTenshi Well there is a Ps1 emulator for the rasberry pi but I dont know if this specific one has it on the SD card.

[@colinbouwer185]

Playstation emulation? Idk if you mean like: PS3 hub in the ps1, but remember, copyright... you can't download any of the playstation hubs, (well, legally, idk if you can download illegal, but i think you can't ) so he downloaded a custom rom i think, from an older version that's not that official like playstation.

[@SteamDeckUser]

Very cool bro.

[@raymondespinosa4558]

awesome project. how did you get the save states to work?

[@Pbsk85]

How can I make the GUI to look like in your video? It`s clean and nice, it shows the list of games to the right and information to the left, besides, choosing systems with each background is great. Because I have seen other video on YT with this emulation Station and it is dull, only the list on games to the center, nothing else.

[@ScottTechReviews]

The OS is a distro of Linux called Retro Pie that comes bundled with the program "Emulation Station." You can download the package from plenty of tutorials like this one: lifehacker.com/how-to-turn-your-raspberry-pi-into-a-retro-game-console-498561192 This is the newest version of Emulation Station to come out (V2.3), and it's much better looking. I've seen the less attrative GUI's that you are referring to, but I believe that those are just older videos. The newest version can be downloaded here: blog.petrockblock.com/retropie/retropie-downloads/

[@TheFoxer134]

Look up retropie

[@b0bbytrucktricks]

WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR HAND? WHY DO YOU ONLY HAVE ONE?!???!!

[@aldoblack5982]

Do you expect to hold his camera with his mouth?

[@eotikurac]

+SecondTo Nunn all these games but only one hand

[@ChrisMX9]

He is holding the camera

[@wendywildshape]

Hey - what frontend did you use? It looks really nice!

[@ScottTechReviews]

Hi there! The OS is called Retro Pi, and the front end is called Emulation Station.

[@TheFoxer134]

Retropie

[@leakproofj2o]

hi how did you do this? great work buddy

[@RKO6192]

Sorry if it's stupidly simple, but how do you wire up the button to both turn on the pi and led? I'm thinking of doing this w/ a mega drive and was curious how you do it?

[@luca6565]

where did you get this nice looking photo? because i am also making a Pi-station (sorry for my bad english im am from Germany)

[@ScottTechReviews]

If you are referring to the PiStation logo, I made it myself in Photoshop by using a PS1 font and recoloring a Raspberry Pi logo. If you'd like to download the picture, as well as read instructions on how I made my PiStation, you can click the link the description to view my Instructable with all this information. Best of luck on your project!

[@luca6565]

Thanks!

[@luca6565]

And how did you do this with the Powerbutton on 1:06 min ? Did you easily solder the wires from the Power Supply to the switch and then to the Pi or does my plan not work?

[@PixelPickaxe]

Your English is pretty good

[@luca6565]

oh Thanks!

[@ElFortresMC]

How did you made the power interruptor?

[@dailydols]

Is there a way to attach the RPi to the CD drive logic via GPIO to fake inserted disks? Like this one would have the genuine PSX hardware.

[@altermann555]

Probably yes ... but i guess its a bit hard to write drivers for the cd drive .. i guess its Easier to open at standard usb hard drive and attach it into it .. just mention to it : S

[@TodoVicioCRT]

hello i have a psone broken and i have a raspberry pi 3 i want to do like you did, the only thing i need to know is how i use the power boton of the console sorry for my english im from argentina

[@TorutheRedFox]

You should have a boot animation.

[@MrAndrjuha]

How did you get ps1 controller to work?

[@demianxldc]

hi, im think made the same mod.... but i want add dvdreader... you know if posible read games from this device? ... or change roms path ?

[@FunkyStudios]

Sonic 2 And Knuckles Is Not A Mod. Its What Happens If You Put A Sonic 2 Cart In A Sonic And Knuckels Cart

[@LeopsAngraBatista]

friend I want to put the same system sends your link to me low?

[@lukasrgl]

Is this Pi Station for sale?

[@coolduder1001]

and u has zero problems with getting roms?

[@MassimoAntonioCarofano]

Any download link to PiStation software?

[@colinbouwer185]

MayB try google..........?

[@MassimoAntonioCarofano]

+Colin Bouwer yep maybe it is an old comment?

[@colinbouwer185]

MayB i just wanna help & didn't mind the date

[@MassimoAntonioCarofano]

Ehehe help with a "search on Google" I don't think could be a real help. Have a nice day!

[@ScottTechReviews]

+Massimo Antonio Carofano Sorry I'm just getting to this, but all information on how to make your own PiStation are in the link to my Instructable in the description. Hope that helps a little more than Google!

[@coolduder1001]

i had the same idea but i used the original power supply

[@luca6565]

+Mitch McCann Is the a 5v wires so you can easily connect ith to the pi? or how did you do this?

[@kennyadvocat]

With the new pi 2 can you run psx & N64 now? =)

[@marktwain3083]

ikr. I ordered a complete pack yesterday.

[@kennyadvocat]

Hope you make a video on that when its ready! =)

[@marktwain3083]

Kenny Advocat I will. I saw a video comparing the older version of RPi with the RPi 2 and the difference was obvious. You can run N64 games at full speed now.

[@jessezandstra1]

Haha, really cool man! I might rip off your idea with my banana pi :p

[@zenmaster24]

in a playstation one but doesnt play playstation one games?

[@adammcknight9989]

+zen you can emulate them... thats how it works... emulating games.

[@82andymac]

I take it you put a playstation emulator on it too. Would be kind of wierd if you didn't.

[@jacobgordon9447]

82andymac the fanboys would freakout

[@TorutheRedFox]

That Sonic 2 isnt modded.

[@TheBigb1973]

i'd rather have an nvidia shield. Its does all this plus more!
