[FOR SALE] Picicle a portable games console

Post by Picicle » Thu Apr 25, 2019 1:51 am

My daughter broke a Chinese portable games console. I did not repair toy but made my own. It turned out nice:

Its overall dimensions are 140 x 69 x 15 mm.

The console is based on a Raspberry PI Zero W.

The console uses a 3.2-inch screen with ILI9341.

The console case is milled from clear acrylic and glued with UV glue. I do not use laser cutting as cracks are possible after gluing.

The operating system of the console is a Retropie distribution with a necessary drivers added to it.

I release a build kit for this console.
The kit includes the following items:
• PCB
• 3.2" LCD screen ILI9341
• A set of all the necessary electronic components (chips, transistors, resistors, capacitors and LEDs)
• Buttons, rubber buttons, miniUSB connector, power switch, variable resistor, speaker.
• A transparent acrylic glass case kit

The kit is missing:
• RaspberryPiZero W
• The LiPo 3.7V battery (overall size 4.5x50x80mm)
• The micro SD card (at least 4GB)
