Make your own retro games console?
« on: Wed, 04 June 2014, 02:06:08 »
Hi All!

I've built my own retro games console for less than £100 (using a Raspberry Pi i picked up for £25) and it's awesome playing all the games from when I was a kid.

My question is, if I made a series of web-tutorials on how to do it, is it something you would pay for (I mean a proper set, like 15*30min video lessons covering everything you need to know and how to do it)

Ah, that type of retro console. So emulation? You should post some photos of your work  :thumb:

I think that there was a thread here in the last couple of years for something vaguely like this.
“These economic royalists complain that we seek to overthrow the institutions of America. What they really complain of is that we seek to take away their power."
He paused for a moment, then thundered, “Our allegiance to American institutions requires the overthrow of this kind of power!”
“In vain,” Roosevelt said, “they seek to hide behind the Flag and the Constitution. In their blindness they forget what the Flag and the Constitution stand for. Now, as always, they stand for democracy, not tyranny; for freedom, not subjection; and against a dictatorship by mob rule and the over-privileged alike.”
- Franklin Roosevelt 1933
