3D model description

This is the Super Pi Boy!
It's built around the Raspberry Pi 3 single board computer, making it a seriously powerful device!
It runs Retropie which provides a wide variety of emulators, all the way from the first Atari console to the Game Boy Advance, Nintendo 64, Dreamcast and everything in between!

It also features a 3.5" TFT LCD with a resolution of 480 X 320, and a built-in speaker which you can turn on and off using the switch on the side.
Because the Raspberry Pi 3 is equipped with a full-size HDMI port you can also play on a full sized tv - especially handy for multiplayer games!

The built-in controller is connected through the GPIO and configured using the Adafruit Retrogame script.

I really hope you enjoy building your own! :D
