Over the past few weeks, I have been working on a complex project involving a Raspberry Pi and Glowforge. It is a Raspberry Pi-powered bar-top arcade cabinet that runs Retropie. It is able to emulate games from consoles like the NES, PS1, MAME, ATARI2600, and more. Using the Glowforge, I designed and cut black, white, and clear medium proof grade acrylic panels for this machine, designing it to look similar to a pre-designed kit from Pimoroni called Picade.
I just realized I forgot to list the parts I used. Below is a screenshot of my order from Pimoroni. Other then that, I used proof grade medium acrylic and a Raspberry Pi 4B.
We bought an arcade cabinet many years ago for the kids, which held a tv and had a shelf to sit either Nintendo or Super Nintendo. I’ve always liked arcades, even though I never really played games.
