Re: RetroStone is live on Kickstarter!

Yeah the buttons on the back are the deal breaker for me as I said on the facebook page. If they were rotated 45 degrees so that left is on the left and right is on the right it would probably make a big difference. Doesn't need a massive redesign but having them like they are now is just odd and co...

Damn. Just saw this picture in the design contest thing...

Good to see a Pi 3 in there.

Horrible to see that button placement on the back.

Re: TP-Link TL-WN823N WiFi-dongle doesn't work - tips with the drivers

Instead of spending that on an apple dingle why not just get a cheap USB WiFi dongle that is pi compatible. I paid about £7 for one off amazon. Works perfectly and is plug and play. Will be cheaper and easier

Re: Other SD cards not working????

Which version of Retropie are you installing on the SD? The version for RPi 2/3 or the version for RPi 0/1? There are different installers depending on the version of RPi being used. You mention it works on a Pi 2/3 so I guess that will be it!

Re: Replacements for controller

This is the one I got. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/391437197854 Not available now as it was a while ago. I didnt pick them for anything but the price though, if they didnt work I wouldn't have lost out much but luckily they worked for me.

Re: Case doesn't properly close near main board?

Is there something between the pi zero and the PCB? I guess you would have already checked but you never know.

Can you press the left hand side of the PCB down so the PCB is flat? ...And then try and close the case again?

Re: RaspiBoy2.0

I'm gonna have to rain on your parade straight away for number 1. Part of the terms of the RetroPie license is that its not sold preinstalled so will never happen as Pierre seems to be keen to adhere to that rule. If its got a raspberry pi in it I always use this unwritten rule I made up, It's gonna...

Replacements for controller

So I was finding the dpad a bit clicky and occasionally missing presses on the main 4 buttons. I found loosening the screws seemed to help but I've tried a different approach... I got some replacement silicone pads for under the buttons/dpad off eBay and the dpad feels alot better. The buttons seem ...
