Retro Games for Sara
This one was pretty straightforward and is only part one of multiple gaming related projects to come…
Wait, if we’re considering Pokemon Skarlet, does that make this part two?… Is a Tamagatchi considered a game? Uh…
So, moving on, there’s definitely more to come after this, but in this case, I wanted to build Sara a little retro console with a lot of the classics that we played when we were younger… and some I didn’t play, but other’s did… (Spyro? Really? >.>)
But, aside from setting up the games and stuff, it needed to have a little corny touch to it, so I made a little custom splash screen with some cute pics of ours. (It’s mostly her being cute though, I just happen to be there. ;D) Of course, no retro console is complete without a proper retro controller, so as you can see in the little photo I took while I was testing it, I made sure to include the 8bitDo N30 pro, which I then realized connects to the Pi via bluetooth! (Look, it’s been a while since I’ve messed with retropi, back in my day, we had wires.)
Here’s to spending many nights playing retro games like a couple of nerds. ;D
