Inspired by some online articles, I decided to build a custom arcade machine using a Raspberry Pi 2B, an I-Pac 2 interface and Retropie software.
I got all the parts (Raspberry Pi 2B, MDF panels, I-Pac 2 interface, joysticks, buttons, micro-switches, cables, LED-buttons, an a LED-panel, a Logitech 2.1 speakerset, cables, etc), built the frame, painted it, assembled all the parts and installed the software.
