RPi One - Retro gaming console with an old PSP case
Description
# RPi One Project This DIY project was born from the idea of using an old (not working) PSOne as an enclosure for a Raspberry Pi 4 and some components. The result is a perfect retro gaming mod, compact, powerful and nice looking for us, millenials :D More photos of the making process (including tests and mistakes :) ) : https://photos.app.goo.gl/y3UGwrfnyT13wZs8A ### What you'll need to buy - Raspberry Pi 4 (minimum 2Gb RAM) - Raspberry heatsink : https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000346812145.html - 5V 30x30mm fan - micro SD card (64Gb for more fun) - micro HDMI male to HDMI female (spend a bit of money on this, some don't pass the audio) : https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32403870454.html - Components for the power board and USB panels (see EasyEDA files) - 4 old (but working and shielded) USB cords (ask your friends) ### What you'll need to build - The power board : https://easyeda.com/Pimousse/rpi-power-board - Assemble USB panels (pinout on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB ) - Disassemble original power button, remove the spring to convert it into a momentary switch - Replace original power LED with an LED and 330 Ohm resistor ### 3D printing tips - Avoid PLA as the case may be really hot (Raspberry Pi 4 are toasters) - If possible, use a "cream" colored filament for matching the original PSOne color (I would have loved to do that, but buying a whole spool for it...) ### Code In /boot/config.txt Add at the end of the file <pre><code># Configure GPIO for power supply management dtoverlay=gpio-shutdown,gpio_pin=20 dtoverlay=gpio-poweroff,gpiopin=21 </code></pre> Also, follow this guide for controlling the fan regarding the CPU temperature : https://www.hackster.io/potnik/temperature-controlled-fan-for-raspberry-pi-034be2 **Feel free to comment, remix and share !**
