After visiting the TKKR Lab and their famous Arcade Gaming Box, i often thaugt about building a smaller one.

So here are some ideas for the hard- and software:

  * Raspberry PI running an emulator like [[http://mamedev.org/|Mame]]
  * a small TFT or Touchscreen
  * disassmble this one [[http://www.amazon.de/Gamepad-ergonomisch-SLIM-SNES-Style/dp/B00140DNHW/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1332942421&sr=8-3|USB Joystick]] an use the USB Controller alternatively [[http://www.ultimarc.com/a-pac.html|32 Button Interface ]]
  * some buttons like [[http://www.arcadeshop.de/Action-Buttons-Pushbutton-SL-yellow_557.html|this]] one [[http://www.arcadeshop.de/Joysticks-CWL306-red-Crown_1006.html|joystick]]
  * something like a [[http://www.arcadeshop.de/Coin-Mech-Coin-Comparator_512.html|Coin Comparator]] would be nice too
