Full Walk Through

This project is also shown with it's progress at Hackaday.io.

Materials

Hardware:

1. An old laptop. But could easily be replaced with a raspberry pi
2. 4 joy stick and button sets from amazon. You can obviously modify this for a cheaper or more expensive version, but you will also have to be aware of the firmware change.

Software:

1. Ubuntu 22.04 download from the setup.sh script, or downloaded here
2. If you need to make modifications, some kind of IDE. I used visual studios code. There are alot of plugins to help you if you are unfamiliar with some of the coding languages.
3. RetroPie via the install scripts or the walkthrough.
4. The ROMS you want to play.
