Made one for my brother! Super fun, albeit a bit buggy. Nowadays Roms can be a bit tough to come by, and I've been meaning to upgrade him to a pi 4 but they are super expensive due to shortages.

I run a retro gaming elective and have really wanted to build one (or more) of these for it. I think I'm finally ready :)

pi4's are coming down at least here in the UK it might be worth reaching out to the community see if someone is near the store and if that wors out a bit cheaper. I would reccomend everyone keep a dedicated backup of their roms it's becoming a bit of a faff to replace corrupted copies 🥧 🐷
