DIY Retro Handheld Gaming Console (V2 Files added for HDMI and external Micro SD))

thingiverse

See the attached Video for complete assembly instructions. Per several requests, I'll be moving the power to the top, adding a spot for an SD extension slot, and adding an HDMI extension for the second HDMI port. Coming soon. It is recommended to have at least a basic knowledge of electronics and a bit of soldering experience to try this project. I tried to keep it as basic as possible, but because of some of my own preferences it did have to include a bit. By taking on this project you assume all liability for any risk or harm that may come to yourself, the parts you're using, or their warranties as a result. All parts should be able to be printed without supports. The two controller adapters have little built in supports on the outside corners that will need removed after printing. The only spot that may end up needing support is the bridge below where the USB and Audio extension are seated. This should print fine for most people, but if supports are needed it may be there. Hopefully you know the bridging capabilities of your printer. Once printing is complete any screw holes will need poked out as they have a single layer closing them in. This layer acts as a support without actually needing supports all the way down to the build plate. The instead of having a support to remove, they just need a hole poked in them.
