4 Player and 4 Monitor Ikea Coffee Table Hack

stulowe

Hi all,

Here is my finished retropie build inside an Ikea Liatorp table. It was a good table for this build as it was already split into 4 sections and had a glass top.

Inside are 4 x Dell 19" 4:3 monitors
Raspberry Pi 3 running Retropie
VGA 4 way splitter (HDMI and adapters used initially but swapped for VGA)
4 x 8bitdo SF30 Pro Controllers

Hope you like. Any questions let me know :)

Great build! Well done!
Funny idea putting 4! monitors in there and great that the viewing angle is just right.

Did I spot a Metroid T-Shirt from Uniqlo? You can get that overseas?

@flyingtomahawk thanks.

Yeah it is the Metroid t-shirt from Uniqlo. I bought the entire Nintendo range when it came out. They had it here in Hong Kong stores.

Very cool!
I have two questions:
What is the name of the second last game? The weird fighting game before the game with the airplane?

And second, how can you run Mario kart so well on the raspberry pi 3? Its unplayable for me, like 5 - 10 fps max and with choppy audio.

Looks like Pocket Fighter for PS1/Saturn
