      I wish I had the confidence/knowledge to do something like this, I think it's awesome!

              @markyh444 The final prototype arrived today. Doing some stress testing, then I'm putting 20 together as kits.

                    @Jeck11 $79 for the ready-to-go board with wires and adapters. The LCD is additional (around $15-20 if you modify one from eBay, or $29 if you want one pre-done)

                        @HurricaneFan 2 hours at least. I've gotten 4 hours with audio switched off and running the battery all the way down.

                            Well there's still the pi and case to be bought. So maybe $130.

                                @edmaul69 Yeah I got a basic version of the joystick working. It's all integrated. An improved joystick is planned for a few months from now, once I have time to work on the software.

                                    @adamspc just seen the pre-order option on your store is up. So so excited, but sadly I'm moving house and can't afford this just yet! Damn you mortgage credit checks!

                                    I fancy a blue board anyway, so will be ordering one later on this year, maybe in the summer. Please keep making these!!!!
