A quick look at the Retro Pie handheld I’m building with my good friend spanning over 12 months. The system is powered by the latest Raspberry Pi CM4 module (2GB RAM, with wireless) and lasts around 4 hours on a full charge. The only thing I’m missing is HDMI out for the prototype PCB, but that should be fixed pretty soon.
It plays up to Dreamcast and PSP at full speed, the PCB hopefully being upgradable in the future with newer compute modules. The case is 6061 aluminum metal anodized green, and the bezel is from an original switch lite screen protector that has been painted.
Not officially finished but we’re pretty close.

Note: Some lockups/frame drops were due to crosstalk on the SD card clock line. Don’t route digital in parallel with analog signals! Woops! Now fixed on latest version.
