RetroPie R2D2
-
@wanderingme I remember having free time. It all seems so long ago now...

Now you just need a couple of r2d2 controllers
Oh look I found some. https://www.amazon.com/Disney-Star-Wars-Wired-Controller-XBOX360/dp/B011DFA49M/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1487225550&sr=8-2&keywords=R2d2+controller
They're wired, but who cares if it goes with the theme. Nice job -
@lostless And this one!
-
@wanderingme the question will an Xbox one controller work in retropie?

@lostless Actually, no, I don't think they will.

@wanderingme That was a really fun read- I've got two R2's I've been planning on doing something like this with- thanks for the inspiration:)

@Fruitybit Do it! Hopefully you can learn from the abundant number of mistakes I made.

@wanderingme raspberry pi's are awesome. However for so many of us it is never ending. Always more roms, more emulators, more customizing themes, more hardware mods. Hope you enjoy doing this. Its as fun as playing them. if i can make some suggestions to help you if you did another one, you should use a bi-metal hacksaw instead of a dremel to do something like cutting r2d2's head off. It would be cleaner. I use my dremels all the time but i wouldnt use them for the holes used for usb ports and hdmi, etc. Drill a bunch of holes to get rid of most of the inside of your holes. Then get a set of mini files (really cheap on ebay or at a store called harbor freight) to file the edges of your holes to get them filed down to size and smooth.

@edmaul69 Exceptional tips! Thank you. Yeah, I'm not a master of the dremel, as you can see. It was a learning process. And, you're right, there's loads more I want to do with this thing!
