Retropie Raspberry Pi Arcade Project: Part 3 – Paint/RGB Button Wiring/Custom PCB

Retropie Raspberry Pi Arcade Project: Part 3 – Paint/RGB Button Wiring/Custom PCB

So I’ve been making lots of progress and in this video I show the painted sides of the cabinet (still needs sanding), the wired RGB buttons hooked up to the controller, and finally the custom pcb which houses the power management and RGB driver controllers as well a labelled headers to make wiring the buttons much easier. I do a short demo to show how these parts come together and talk a bit about the next steps which basically involve lots of wiring and mounting components to the cabinet frame. We are in the home stretch, so hopefully all goes smoothly.

To allow for a faster boot couldn't you disable wireless capablities? It may save battery too. I was just curious. My main love is Computer Science and programming
