Raspberry Pi Handheld gaming device (Portable Pi, MAME)

I've designed a retro gaming device powered by Raspberry Pi, specifically for playing classic consoles like NES, SNES, Genesis, and more. The device uses RetroPie software and can be run on Roms to play your favorite games from the past. The total cost of the build is under $100 USD, making it an affordable project that you can try at home. My creation was inspired by various similar projects found online, including Ben Heck's legendary builds. Here's how I made my retro gaming console: Materials Needed Case: You'll need a 3D printed case designed for PLA. You can use any software you like to design your own or download the pre-made template that comes with most of the retro gaming projects on the internet. Electronics: - Raspberry Pi B+ is used in this build, which means removing the Ethernet and dual USBs. - The Car dashmount rear view LCD adds a futuristic touch to our retro console. - A classic SNES controller gives players a nostalgic gaming experience. - To power it all, a 3.7v 2500mAh lipo battery is required along with a step up circuit from 3.7v to 5v for the Raspberry Pi and a charging circuit so that we can recharge the LiPo battery. - Finally an audio Amp to power a speaker
