Description
This model is for building a fully functional arcade machine powered by a Raspberry Pi. The build is meant to house a 7inch display and includes mounting holes for a joystick and 8 buttons.
While there are tons of cheap handhelds out there these days capable of emulating numerous systems, there's just something special about the arcade cabinet form factor and assembling something completely on your own.
Full parts list and assembly guide can be found here:

I will try to keep this up to date as I make further modifications / optimizations.
