Hi,

I'm building a Pi arcade machine, but have had real trouble with the consoleblock, just isn't working.

What did everyone else use to connect the buttons?

@m312 I have used the gpio, and the adafruit retrogame code to convet the button presses into pretend keyboard events

Other ways I have seen is to use a microcontroller like a teensy or Arduino to do the job
