Gameshell Kit
Linux Format
|September 2019
Need to take your love of retro gaming everywhere you go? Check out the open source handheld ClockworkPi GameShell, says Christian Cawley.
The retro gaming explosion seems to be centred around two types of device: dedicated, sometimes licensed, revivals of original machines built to modern specifications, and open source SBCs like the Raspberry Pi.
Veering away from this is the GameShell from ClockworkPi, which despite the similar name has no connection to the Raspberry Pi. It’s a modular device that can be bought in kit form only, but the result is a Nintendo Gameboy-like pocket-sized gaming machine that runs a host of retro emulation software.
A successful Kickstarter campaign got the ball rolling with $290,000 worth of backing in 2017, and the console is now available to buy online. But do you really want a device that you have to build yourself? Of course you do!
