(figured I’d ‘do my part’ and make my first Lemmy post…!)

I love this thing too much to part with, but I’m gonna have to be honest: I barely use it. More often or not I retro-game on my Steam Deck…slightly more portable!

Has anyone else built their own units for retro-gaming though?

    I had a crazy idea for a stand up machine, with a fairly large 16:9 TV screen, mounted so it can either be oriented like a normal TV, kinda sticking out of the arcade machine on either side, or lowered a bit and tilted backwards so a portion of the screen can be reflected into a mirror toward the player, like the old arcade machines did. Arcade mode would give a more authentic experience when you wanted that, while Full Screen mode would be good for sitting back and playing with a controller. idk if I’m describing this very well, I’ll never have the extra money to do it anyways.
