But building one from scratch and loading it with games can be tricky, which is why we’re recommending this ultimate retro console from the aptly named RetroGamingHaven. It’s a fully-assembled Raspberry Pi system that includes two wired controllers modeled after the SNES controllers. It has HDMI output, USB inputs, and even Bluetooth and wifi. You can also use the included controllers or connect your own Bluetooth controllers for analog systems like the N64.<\/p>\n
Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- It’s a tiny console, measuring mere inches across. For a travel-sized retro console, it doesn’t get much better than this.<\/li>\n
- With four USB ports, it lets you play with up to four players.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Cons:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- It can be tricky to download other applications since this uses Retropie which is mostly geared towards emulation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
