@ZipplyZane

Alex Anders It requires special tools and expertise, and can go wrong and completely ruin the parts if you don't do it right. I definitely would prefer a no-solder build, as it's more foolproof. Though cutting out that one piece is also something you can mess up, as most people don't have the best tool for the job.

@alexmrbvlogs

But that's only true for SMT components. Regular components can be soldered on using a soldering iron-nothing special about that, and no expertise required. Basic soldering takes minutes to learn, and no-you don't need a good iron at all for basic soldering.

Got my build working. You omitted a critical bit of info that the average Joe might get stuck on... USB must be formatted to FAT32 or NTFS, then create a folder called "retropie" on your USB stick BEFORE plugging it onto the Raspberry Pi for the first time. Only THEN will the Pi create the roms/folders directory.

Honestly if you have a retro game shop in your area they typically have non-working games that they'll sell you for a dollar or just give you if you ask. That's only if you REALLY care about destroying a working game. I have several old mario/duck hunt games bought in bulk lots/garage sales over the years so I'll likely cannibalize them for parts. Now I might just be a jerk and buy a reprinted sticker for a really valuable game to put on the cart just to mess with someone. "OMG YOU RUINED A LITTLE SAMSON TO MAKE THIS???!!!!"

Ok so I’ve been always telling myself “yeah I’m gonna make that” but I never have but that stopped two months ago when I finished making this I’m very proud of myself for making this.

You're overpaying. The Pi Zero is $5, the USB hub can be had for less than that if you don't insist on an Amazon branded one, the various cables are under $10, and the last controller I bought was $5. You can get all the parts and still have $5 left for shipping before the cost gets up to $30 easy. Of course I've yet to find a place other than Micro Center (where you can buy it the old fashioned way instead of using these newfangeled interwebs) that charges less than $10 shipping for a Pi Zero...

THIS IS FANTASTIC!

This is exactly what i was looking for when someone said Nintendo released the retro console. Thanks for the awesome video!!

I went to the parts list and ordered everything online. I built the cartridge pi console. The price was more around fifty bucks, but I think that it was totally worth it. Wires were a tight squeeze, but I figured it out eventually. One problem that you might run into if you're gonna build this is finding the "Expand file system" in the raspi config menu. If the Expand file system isn't on the top of the config list, it's in the advanced settings folder. Anyway, the build took me two days to complete, but was worth the work. I recommend this project to any retro gaming fans.

You mean when I pulled the original game out? More complex games used more surface area due to larger PCBs.

@NiGHTSnoob

Not true. Prototype games used the full case, but retail games didn't. Probably because the Japanese cartridges were much smaller, like half as tall, and the PCB was very similar despite the different pin layout. The reason the NES carts were so big was for the front loading system they designed for the US market, the Famicom is a top loader. www.i64x.com/i6img/avf21.jpg

Great video. Very simple + clear. Can't wait to start building my own. All the parts are ordered, just waiting on them to arrive.

Awesome idea thank you for the tutorial! I just ordered all my parts. I can't wait to build one! Just for the cool factor, how small it is. it cost me around $70 though with all the parts included, which is still not bad considering the nes classic (that is impossible to get) has 30 NES games and this can play a ton more systems and can store many many more games. Thanks again!

This worked very well. The only snag I hit was with the retropie creating the folders on the flash drive. Because I was using a newer version I had to first make a folder titled "retropie". After that everything worked like the video said it would. Thanks for making this vid.

I'm actually in the process of making this exact system for myself! Still waiting on some parts from Amazon though so doing some homework and prep work in the meantime. For mine I'm putting it in a Super Mario Bros 1/Duck Hunt because it's an iconic and very common game.

Gee, Golf is so crappy that it's even included in the Mini NES classic edition.

I'm wondering how you got the "less than $30 number". It's $76 for all the parts if you buy everything on Amazon. Well over double what you claim. It's more expensive than the actual NES Classic Edition by about $16. Not sure how it "kills it" in any way.

Sitting at a desk in a comfortable office chair is actually way more comfortable and better for your back than sitting on a couch. However you can hook any modern computer to any TV these days so you don't have to sit at a desk if you don't want to. Also a great majority of those with computers have laptops which can be used anywhere, even on the couch, and can be hooked up via HDMI to TVs as well. Your whole "playing games at a desk" argument is about as out of touch as Nintendo themselves. Additionally I hope you don't intend on sitting on the couch while playing the NES Classic whose controller only has a 3 foot cord. You will most likely be sitting on the floor and looking up about 3 feet away from a 50 inch or bigger screen. Have fun with that.

I didn't really flag the video, hehe, I'm not that retarded. I can't even remember posting this, I can't believe 10 people clicked like on my ridiculous comment. XD

Torgo People liked your joke.

THANKS FOR THE VIDEO GUY!!!! Finally got mine going turns out I didn't have sound because my TV I was using was too old so I bought a new SmartTV now and the sounds works great I started my project at Thanksgiving now I have 800 NES games on my Zelda Gold Cartridge and 600 SNES games and 900 Sega games and I even added Wi-Fi to mine

Does this tape work well? Debating on using this or hot glue - I have both.

when you plug in the USB thumb drive does it move the games to the mini SD card or do you have to keep the USB thumb drive plugged in?

YOU DEFILED THE TURD THAT IS NES GOLF TO BUILD AN AMAZING SYSYEM? lol. Awesome build, brother. Subscribed.

I made one of these and it is a totally cool project. If you are starting from scratch, the real world price is around $70 if you use Amazon prime for (least expensive) everything shipped in a few days. The $5 Pi Zero is misleading because the only shipping option from adrafruit is $12.50 per unit (1 per order max). Having a mini sd card and power supply on hand will save you $10. A good ibuffallo controller will cost another $15. If you don't mind waiting for a month you can save $30 and get all the cords from gearbest or dx. the best way to go is just get a Pi 3 kit with a case and 2.5 amp power supply for $50 and have bluetooth and wifi also. Thanks for the vid! It opened up a whole new world for me! I just discovered the raspberry pi phenomenon after watching this.

ok so once I have retro ip installed on the sd card and in the Pi0 for the first boot how long does it take to install ?

When i plug everythinh in that i need, nothing pops up. is there something wrong with the micro sd card? this lights for the pi and usb hub are on, so i dont know whats happening. Please help!! Edit: I figured out the problem. For anyone using a computer or laptop with one hdmi, then it is most likely output, not input, which you need for this to work. You'll need to use it on something that has and hdmi that says input, like your tv.

followed all your instructions...but when i shut down the pi it then comes to a screen of dos when at start up and acts as if im supposed to type in some kind of commands? or there have been a few times where there are errors at loading up. Any ideas on how to shut down and start up flawlessly everytime?

how do you fix the no gamepad detect after the boot up to emulation station? i have a usb game pad. can i bypass this and reconfig myself with the keyboard?

ok. another dumb question. if i setup multiple retropie systems can i use the same usb drive setup for roms. on 2 or more.

I'm definantly going to make myself one of these. Great video!

hope to see something like this in a few years with all ps4 and xb1 games

Anything that involves retro games are always great videos

Snazzy Labs Used a Pi 2 instead of a Zero, and even though I went through some trouble when install RetroPie, it was worth it. Just got to get my hands on a USB SNES controller (luckily The Pi Hut literally just made their version available for 5£, which is really cheap compared to retrolinks offerings) and a couple ROMs, and I'll be ready to rock my homemade NES classic edition :) Thanks a lot Quinn! Wish you luck with your exams!

youre like a genius genie with an awesome stache. this is great

Watching you in 2018. My first reaction is "Oh my god he had a beard!"

@Snazzy Labs Hey! is there any way to set it up to use s-video instead of hdmi? I have an adapter for s-video to vga and really want to use it on my monitor.

This is cool. I will definitely be building one!

Not getting any Audio. Tried editing the text file to force hdmi, but no luck. Other google searches say something about a retroarch.cfg file, but I cant seem to locate on my SD card. any help?

For extra credit: Retropie also sets up a network share that you can access from any computer on the same network. You can drag and drop your roms that way and add them by the powers of magic instead of using a usb flash drive

Great Video. One side note though. If you cannot get the retropie file to create automatically on the USB simply add an empty folder to the thumb named "retropie" no quotes. Then throw it back in your pi and wait for the light to stop flashing. Remove from your Pi and back to the PC and your sub folders will be build and ready for Rom

Does anyone know if there's a way to add "save slots" for continuing game play later? Getting my parts for this in a week, can't wait to get started.

Quick question when I go to do this project. How do you remove files off the SD card later? I understand that when you put the thumb drive into the Pi it will auto copy the roms, but how do you say remove one later?

would it be best to glue down the ports once appropriate cables are in place?

Can this build handle 4 players? I see the was the hub is positioned it looks like it can handle 3. I was thinking of building this, only with a different case so all 4 of the hub usb ports are exposed. Would that work? or can it only handle 2 players?

Awesome build!

How do you power this thing? Would it work if I just plug the usb into a main power outlet? I am scared off plugging it into my power incase it just explodes. I am going to be using this device within the uk and the uk give out different volts.

also the programs we download earlier on, do they come with the emulators? or do we need to do that on our own?

Thanks a lot for this tutorial! This is awesome!

Wait, once the light on the usb flash drive stops flashing all the games from it should be copied to the SD card, or does it play them from the usb?

I think i will try this but i will just use a android hdmi stick with outer casing removed to fit and insert sd card and connect a slim 4 hub usb inside as well then i would have a emulator and android nes cart with wifi connection as well. . . .what do you think
