Matt Brailsford\u00a0(aka Circuitbeard<\/a>) has taken an old Grandstand Scramble gaming console and adapted it for use with the Raspberry Pi. He’s got a 5″ HDMI\u00a0TFT screen (which gives a resolution of 800×480) for the display and used the Picade controller board from Pimoroni<\/a>. He cut and adapted various parts to allow for the buttons and the joystick and then made a new bezel for more customisation. The end result is a beautiful, compact retro gaming system. Read more about the build here<\/a>\u00a0and see it in action below.<\/p>\n
