PortaBerry Pi: Handheld Raspberry Pi Emulator
Hi everybody!
This is my first post here and I'd like to share the outcome of nearly a month of work (20 hours of which my Makerfarm 8" Prusa i3 did). Presenting the PortaBerry Pi, its a handled emulator utilizing (above all else) a raspberry pi, TFT display, and 9.6v NiMh battery. The case is 3D printed and accounts for the aforementioned 20 hours of printing.
HERE: http://imgur.com/a/iMhbW#0 is an album detailing the construction of the machine.
HERE: http://imgur.com/a/8ltCe#0 is another album detailing the interior.
And HERE: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...it?usp=sharing is a work in progress bill of materials.
The STL files can be found on THINGIVERSE: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:321624
Printing done on a Makerfarm 8" Prusa i3.
Material is white PLA.
*Processor: 512 Mb Raspberry Pi Model B
*Display: 4.5" TFT Monitor
*Battery: 9.6v NiMh Pack
*Controls: Custom, running on Teensy 2.0
*Sound: 2 Mini 8 Ohm speakers running mono, or a stereo 3.5mm headphone jack
*Operating system: RetroPie
I hope you all enjoy and feel free to ask any questions you would like.Last edited by 3Derp; 05-05-2014 at 08:22 PM.

This is incredibly awesome. How many pieces was the case printed in, 2? Did you design it all yourself?

Thank you The case is 2 'main' pieces with multiple inserts. This was mainly to spread the risk of a bad print over multiple smaller prints. That way if I screwed up a measurement it wouldn't wreck a 7 hour print. If you want, have a look through the construction album (1st one linked), it shows how the whole thing came together. And ya its my design.

That looks awesome!
I have been working on a retropie setup myself.
With your controller. Do you have it showing up as a joystick? Or just an HID keyboard?

Very nice, working on a retro pie myself, hoping to have it a tad smaller.

can you install a mame emulator ?
I do have a spare r-pi b that is just collecting dust as i've never managed to connect it to a monitor and get a picture.
If you could install mame and get a working copy of Nuclear Runner (my all time favourite arcade machine). I might actually put the effort in :-)

How can I find a good SNES emulator to install on Raspberry Pi for playing retro console games in 2020?
