Fat Thursday (the last Thursday of carnival) ;) On this occasion, I prepared a donut board according to my wife's idea 😁 So how many donuts are you going to eat today? I plan to eat 6 donuts 😂 🇵🇱 Tłusty czwartek 😉 Z tej okazji przygotowałem deskę do pączków według pomysłu mojej żony 😁 To ile dzisiaj zjecie pączków? Ja planuje zjeść 6 pączków 😂 #donuts #eatingdonuts #woodwork #fastproject #razemzżoną #tłustyczwartek #pączki #woodchipsflying #słodko #słodkości #sweets #withwifey❤️ (w: Poznan, Poland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLJDdOpjXxD/?igshid=18p7nniwmd4z3

Freshly risen? Nope--a quick switch out. Sometimes all you need to liven up tired winter interest is some moss... #moss #planter #lifeonmars #martv #fastproject (at Rosebrook Gardens)

Got my hands into a raspberry pi zero w and decided to do a portable arcade machine with an snes controller. 

Why an snes controller? It barely provides enough space for everything, but it does have 4 buttons + 2 triggers and it’s still flat and small enough to carry in the pocket. A nes controller would provide more assembly space, but with less buttons and a square shape.

So basically I used a raspberry pi zero w, a micro sd card, a lithium battery charger, a lithium battery from my small syma x5c quadcopter (3.7V 500mAh - if buying one there are already more powerful ones with the same form/size), an snes controller (got one on amazon), a small power button, a mini hdmi to hdmi converter and some wires.

Then it’s just some patience wiring all together and testing it. Getting a retropie distro into the sd card, adding some roms on it and configuring the snes controller to work via the gpio’s.

I inspired myself in this 2 tutorials:

Don’t forget to configure the wifi and enable the ssh before closing the remote for further management/copying roms into the pi.
