PALPi Retro Game Console
Hey everyone what's up!
So this is my RecalBox based handheld gaming console aka the PALPi
Its name is PALPi because it uses a composite PAL Display.
When I was little I love playing games like Pokemon, contra, super Mario, Final Fantasy, and other games mostly on Gameboy advance and that game console that we hooked up with our CRT TVs to run great old stuff.
Well, nowadays we can just download the retro game ROM and open it up in an emulator and play that game on our laptop and mobile devices,
but as a maker, I wanted to do something different,
so I prepared this handheld retro gaming console setup which is powered by a Raspberry pi zero, the OS that I'm using here is the Recalbox os.
It's a decent Emulator OS that also comes with few preloaded games.
This whole setup is powered by an IP5306 IC which is a 5V 2A Constant Boost IC. It's used in a power bank circuit which is ideal for powering a Raspberry Pi zero.
I'm using a 4.3-inch display in this setup which is pretty huge if compared with a regular Gameboy screen so this setup size will be around 135mm x 140mm.
On the front side, there's a display and buttons and on the bottom side, raspberry pi zero along with a boost converter circuit and a Li-Ion Cell will be placed.
This Setup is a combination of PCB and 3D Printed Body which will be connected together via screws through the given mounting holes in the PCB.
Schematic For Basic GPIO Wiring
This is the schematic that we have to use for GPIO Buttons.
