Pi Cart...in the flesh


Been a while since I've posted stuff. The Pi Cart is fully assembled. I replaced the 2 USB connectors with 2 covered connectors. I had problems with glue getting in the other ones when I was try to get them into place. Designed a new NES label as well.

Here's what it sort of looks in the inside. The controller USB ports and the power port switched places when I changed to the new USB connectors.

It's pretty much done. I wanted to use some USB SNES controllers just because I needed more buttons to play different systems, but when I updated to the new RetroPi version it's broke the driver or something. So I just ended up using 2 Phillips Recoil controllers. They aren't the best, but they do the job well enough.
