You’ll need an HDMI cable for video and sound, USB mouse and keyboard for set up, a micro USB cable (the one that charges most android phones) and a 5.1V 2.5A power supply. If you already have a computer and a phone, then chances are you already have everything you need. There are some additional hardware that you will need. Those controllers are pretty cool and cost me about $15 each. The controllers that I use are some cheap controllers from GameStop. So which one is right? That is entirely upto you. Searching for USB controllers on Amazon returns more than 50,000 results.
The only requirement is that it needs to be a USB device. This is the only major component that isn’t strictly needed you can use a keyboard and mouse if you wanted to, but lets be honest, you need a controller for it to "feel" right. You can buy a similar card for half the price, so I recommend that. To be honest, I don’t recommend this card for this application, because we are not going to be using NOOBS for anything, although it could be useful to make sure your Raspberry Pi boots correctly. The SD card I used was this SD card I bought a while ago with NOOBS preloaded on it. If 32GB isn’t doing it for you, you can always use an external drive. One thing to keep in mind is that according to this stack exchange post, there is a max supported size of 32 GB, although some people have gotten larger sizes working. The Raspberry Pi uses a Micro SD card (Only applicable to the Pi 2 and 3) to hold the OS and it boots from this! The SD card should be at least 4 GB, but if you go with a bigger card, you get to store more games. This piece of hardware isn’t really that important all though, it is still important enough to mention.
Here is a direct link to the Pi I used for my arcade. I have bought many electronics from them and they are always reliable. If you need to buy a Raspberry Pi, I would checkout. In fact this is the primary reason I went with the three over the two. The Pi 3 has a wifi chip built into the board, making it a cinch to connect to wifi. While the Pi 2 and Pi 3 both have 4 USB hubs, the Pi 2 only has ethernet built onto the board, so if you want Wifi, you are going to need to buy a USB wifi adapter. The Pi 2 and Pi 3 both have 4 USB ports while the Pi 1 only has two ports. The more USB ports the device has, the more people you can play with. However I think the most important details to consider here are the number of USB ports and the networking capabilities.
RASPBERRY PI 2 EMULATOR MAC 64 BIT
The RPi3 boast a 1.2 GHz 64 bit Arm Processor while the Raspberry Pi 2 has a 900 MHz processor and 32 bit architecture (RPi 2 version 1.2 does have a 64 bit processor) and the Raspberry Pi 1 has a 700 MHz processor and only 512 or 256 MB RAM. The RPi 3 and 2 both use Microsd cards instead of the one’s Regular size SD card. There are some differences between the RPi 3 and RPi 2 and RPi 1. If you get this working on a Rpi 1, let me know! I would love to hear about it. I have an RPi one set up at work to run Google’s timer and that is barely responsive. I am not 100% sure about how a Raspberry Pi 1 would work, but I am deeply skeptical that it would work well. I used a Raspberry Pi 3 for this project, though this would probably work on a Raspberry Pi 2. For those of you who don’t know what a Raspberry Pi is, it is a credit card sized machine priced at an affordable $35 dollars. The most obvious piece of hardware I used was a raspberry pi. In this article, I will walk you through the entire process from setting up your Raspberry Pi to transforming it into a relatively cheap retro console. So I did the next best thing: I found a raspberry pi I had laying around and fished out an old USB XBoX controller I had laying around and so Yoseph’s Arcade™ was born. The problem is, Arcade machines are expensive and I couldn’t get my hands on one that day. Being the huge nerd that I am, I decided that I wanted to play these games all the time. A couple of weeks ago I went to this barcade in Lansing Michigan.
