Building a Raspberry Pi Retrogaming Console

Emulation, Projects, Raspberry Pi, Retrogaming, Videogames

I’m a big fan of retro games, with many fond memories of the 8-bit and 16-bit years.

And I’m looking for a way to relive those memories on the big screen.

Project Notes

Status Completed
Goal Build a cheap, small and light device to retrogame on the big screen

I selected the Raspberry Pi and RetroPie as the base for my build.

After a week of on/off tweaking, I found optimal settings and documented the full setup here.

For Phase 2, I configured Moonlight Game Streaming to allow low latency streaming of more demanding titles from my gaming PC.

Overall I’m very pleased with the result, and pleasantly surprised by how well Moonlight Game Streaming works.
